For a spicier kick, use a hotter picante sauce or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the chicken mixture. To make ahead, assemble the flautas and store them in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time. Experiment with different cheeses! Pepper jack, Oaxaca, or a Mexican blend would all be delicious. For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with cooked and seasoned black beans or pinto beans.
