Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by heating corn tortillas to keep them pliable—simply pop them in the microwave for about 10 seconds.
- In a non-stick pan, sauté diced onion, minced garlic, and chopped jalapeño over medium heat for about 5 minutes until softened.
- Next, add the brown lentils, 3 cups of vegetable broth, one can of fire-roasted tomatoes, and vegan taco seasoning. Bring to a boil, then cover and let it simmer for 30 minutes.
- After simmering, stir in the second can of fire-roasted tomatoes and adjust the mixture consistency with more broth if necessary. Let it cool slightly.
- Take a warmed tortilla, place about 4 tablespoons of the lentil filling near one edge, and tightly roll it up.
- Brush each taquito with fresh lime juice and sprinkle with chili powder.
- For crispy taquitos, air-fry at 400°F for 7-10 minutes or bake at 400°F for about 20 minutes.
- Once cooked, serve warm with salsa, hot sauce, and vegan sour cream.

Notes
Keep tortillas moist to prevent cracking, and make sure to preheat your cooking appliance for even cooking. Don’t overfill the taquitos to maintain their shape.
