By Chelsie Kenyon, About.com

Kids love to eat these and you will love how easy they are to make. Cut each flauta in half and serve as an appetizer, or serve up enough for a main dish. This recipe makes 5 full sized flautas.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 5 flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded turkey
  • 1 teaspoon chile powder
  • salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons red chile sauce
  • oil for frying

Preparation:

Add chile powder and sauce to turkey and toss to coat. Divide the turkey evenly between each tortilla. Roll each filled tortilla and place seam side down to rest until all of them are rolled.

Heat oil over medium heat, and fry each flauta until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve with guacamole or salsa.
