  • 1 ½ C. Shredded taco blend cheese

Instructions:
  1. On medium-high heat, add the minced meat to the skillet. Cook until the meat is completely browned and drained off the excess liquid.
  2. In the same skillet as the meat, add the beans, onion, minced garlic, 12 cups tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin, salt, oregano, and pepper to taste. Cook for another 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring often to ensure that all of the ingredients are well combined.

  4. In the bottom of a deep-sided pan, pour approximately an inch of oil and heat over medium-high heat on the stove.
  5. Fill the middle of each of the 10 tortillas with an equal quantity of filling. To make a packet, fold one end of the tortilla over the filling, tuck in the ends of the tortilla, and roll it closed. Using a toothpick, shut the packet.
  6. Place the filled chimichangas in the hot oil and fry until both sides are browned and crispy. Keep an eye on them because this won’t take long.
  7. Allow the chimichangas to cool on a paper towel-lined pan to absorb any excess grease.
  8. In a saucepan over medium heat on the stove, heat the remaining tomato sauce, green chilis, and jalapeño peppers until the sauce is warm.
