Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
2 cups cooked white rice
2 tablespoons water
1 ½ tablespoons chopped red bell pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh garlic
12 (6 inch) corn tortillas, or more to taste
2 cups salsa
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
Add cooked rice, water, bell pepper, and garlic to the beef in the skillet; stir and cook until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Spoon onto tortillas and roll to close. Place taquitos tightly against each other in an 8x12-inch baking pan. Pour salsa over and top with Cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 25 minutes.

Cook's Note:

You can use brown rice instead of white rice, and garlic powder instead of fresh garlic.
