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.
