Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Stir beans and taco seasoning together in a bowl. Place cream cheese in a separate bowl and stir until smooth; mix in the prepared guacamole until well combined.
Step 2
Place 1 tortilla on a work surface; spread evenly with 1/2 cup of bean mixture; top with 1/2 cup of guacamole. Roll tortilla into a log; moisten edge with a little water to seal. Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic; refrigerate until firm, 1 hour to overnight.
Step 3
To serve, unwrap rolls; trim off uneven edges of each roll. Cut into 1-inch pieces. Place a piece into each cupcake liner; insert red pepper strip into center of each piece for wicks. Sprinkle with green onion.
