Spinach and mushroom are a classic veggie filling for so many things, like your breakfast omelet, but these flautas really make the earthy spinach and umami mushrooms sing together. Two cheeses, cheddar inside and queso fresco outside, make their own unique harmony. Chipotle mayonnaise drizzled over, fresh tomatoes on top… this is almost too much “music” for one delicious dinner. Tip: Easier way to mince cilantro? Gather them all in one hand and lay on the cutting board. Use your knife in rocking motion to cut, then turn 90 degrees and repeat until the herbs are properly minced!

Meat lovers! If adding protein, cook with 1 tsp. olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Top flautas with protein, or serve on the side. If using steak strips, separate into a single layer and pat dry. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir occasionally until no pink remains and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. If using ground pork, cook with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper, breaking up meat until no pink remains and pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 5-7 minutes. If using ground turkey, cook with ¼ tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper, breaking up meat until no pink remains and turkey reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 7-9 minutes.
