These were a lot of work and didn't turn out that great. The flautas were soggy and the filling was bland.

Not bad, but not great either.

These were really good! I did make a few changes though. I used a different type of cheese and added some sour cream to the filling. They were still amazing!

My first time making this and it turned out delicious! I used ground turkey instead of beef and it was still really flavorful. My family loved them. Will definitely be making these again.
