Ingredients
Scale
Cheese Base
- 6 slices mozzarella cheese
Filling
- 1 ½ cups cooked shredded or grilled chicken
- ¼ cup cooked bacon (2–3 slices), chopped
- 1 tablespoon low carb ranch dressing
- 1 teaspoon green onion, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped cooked bacon, low carb ranch dressing, and chopped green onions. Mix well and set aside.
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with a silicone baking mat to prevent the cheese from sticking during baking.
- Bake the Cheese Slices: Arrange the mozzarella slices on the lined baking sheet, leaving space between each slice so they don’t touch. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes until the edges are browned and cheese is bubbly.
- Cool and Soften Cheese: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cheese slices cool for about 1 minute, just enough to handle but still pliable.
- Assemble Taquitos: Place a spoonful of the chicken bacon ranch mixture along one edge of each mozzarella slice. Carefully roll up the cheese slice tightly over the filling with the seam side down to secure.
