– 2 tbsp taco seasoning, depends on the instructions on the packet;
– 8 oz cream cheese, at room temperature;
– ½ cup salsa;
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese;
– 2 tbsp butter, melted;
– 12 small tortillas.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking tray or baking dish with a parchment paper.
Brown ground beef in a skillet. Add taco seasoning depending on the packet instruction (we use 2 tbsp). Turn off the heat.
Beat cream cheese in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer. Add salsa when cream cheese is fluffy. Then, mix until well combined.
Place tortilla on the work surface. Add 1 tbsp of cream cheese and salsa mixture to the center of the tortilla. Cover this mixture with cooked beef. Then, top with shredded cheddar cheese. Wrap tortilla the same as a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Place taco pockets on the prepared baking tray. Then, brush wrapped tortillas with melted butter and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until taco pockets are golden and cheese melts. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings (guacamole, hot sauce, salsa, sour cream).
