Divorced beef flautas

Within Mexican cuisine, flautas are sisters of golden chicken tacos, as they are very similar but are made with elongated corn tortillas. They can be filled with chicken, potato, beef, or any stew. They are garnished with cheese, cream, lettuce, and sauce.This popular snack is usually made with shredded meat, so we gave it a twist and filled them with stewed beef and a touch of McCormick® Salt with Pepper. To top it off, we bathed them in green and red sauce. Dare to try them!Fun fact: Divorced dishes are called that because both green and red sauce are added.
