Once i read that fajitas were actually invented in Texas.  Not sure whether
that's true...

Here's a recipe for beef flutes.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Fajita Flautas
Categories: Beef, Mexican
     Yield: 12 Flautas

     2 lb Fajitas
    12    Corn tortillas
     1 c  Cooking oil
          Toothpicks

 Prepare fajitas by cooking as desired, then chop up into bite-sized
 pieces. First dampen tortillas with water, then soften voer warm
 griddle. Lay tortilla flat, spoon on fajita pieces, and toll
 tightly--pin closed with a toothpick. Heat oil in a skillet; fry
 tortilla roll in skillet until crisp and golden brown--drain on paper
 towel. Remove toothpick, serve with a spoon of guacamole and sour
 cream on top.
