Baked Honey Lime Chicken Taquitos

I found this recipe on pinterest this week and made them for dinner last night. It was a hit and really easy to make!!! If you like the cafe rio pork, these kind of taste like that, they are very sweet with a hint of spice in them. Also I think the cilantro lime cream dip would be yummy, however I did not take the extra time to make it. We just dipped ours in sour cream and salsa.
