    Recipe Introduction


    This is an awesome recipe, if you like Mexican food! These tasty beef
    and bean treats are baked instead of fried.

    Prep Time: 15 Minutes
    Cook Time: 30 Minutes
    Ready In: 45 Minutes
    Makes: 8 chimichangas

    List of Ingredients




    1 pound lean ground beef
    3/4 cup chopped onion
    3/4 cup diced green bell pepper
    1 1/2 cups whole kernel corn
    2 cups taco sauce
    2 teaspoons chili powder
    1 teaspoon garlic salt
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
    8 (12 inch) flour tortillas
    1 (16 ounce) package shredded Monterey Jack cheese
    1 tablespoon butter, melted
    shredded lettuce
    1 tomato, diced


    Recipe



    1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

    2. Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Drain
    excess grease, and add the onion, bell pepper, and corn. Cook for about 5
    more minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Stir in the taco sauce,
    and season with chili powder, garlic salt and cumin, stirring until
    blended. Cook until heated through, then remove from heat, and set aside.

    3. Open the can of beans, and spread a thin layer of beans onto each of
    the tortillas. Spoon the beef mixture down the centre, and then top
    with as much shredded cheese as you like. Roll up the tortillas, and place
    them seam-side down onto a baking sheet. Brush the tortillas with
    melted butter.

    4. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden
    brown. Serve with lettuce and tomato.
