Ingredients

1 lb ground beef

2 Tbsp Oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 16 oz can whole tomatoes-drained and cut up (could use fresh tomatoes as well)

1/3 cup salsa

1 1/2 tsp chili powder

1/2 tsp ground thyme

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

1/8 tsp ground cumin

1 Cup refried beans

oil for frying

6 (8-inch) flour tortillas

3/4 c Monterey Jack Cheese (I always use more cheese!) shredded

Directions

Brown beef in skillet, Drain, remove beef from skillet and set aside.

Put 2 Tbsp of oil in skillet, add onion and garlic.

Saute until onion is tender, at this point stir in your ground beef, tomatoes, sauce, and all spices. Cook 10-15 minutes until thickened.

Remove from heat and stir in refried beans.

Heat 2 inches of oil to 350 degrees.

Put 1/2 cup beef mixture in center of each tortilla, fold opposite sides of tortilla to the center of each beef mixture, fold ends toward center and secure with a toothpick.

Fry 1-2 chimichangas at a time about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes until golden brown.

Drain on paper towel.

Sprinkle top of each chimichanga with 2 Tbsp of Monterey Jack Cheese, serve with salsa and extra toppings if desired!
