Cover bowl and shake vigorously until coated
Bake at 400F for 15-20 minutes
Finely chop 1/4 white onion, 2 jalapenos, ham and Monterey Jack cheese until you have approximately 1/2 cup of each
Saute the onion and jalapeno in 2-3 tablespoons of oil for a few minutes
Add the ham along with generous dashes of salt and freshly ground pepper
Add the eggs and cook until just slightly underdone
Warm up the tortillas briefly, this will help make them more flexible

Turn the taquitos over halfway through if you want to
When the edges are darkening and crisping up they are done
