Time 50m

Yield 8 chimichangas, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

cooking spray (2 sprays)
1/2 lb uncooked ground turkey breast
16 ounces canned fat-free refried beans
1 3/4 cups salsa
4 1/2 ounces canned green chili peppers, mild, drained and diced
1 teaspoon chili powder
3 tablespoons scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup shredded reduced-fat monterey jack cheese
8 large burrito-size wheat flour tortillas
1 cup salsa
1/2 cup nonfat sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat a large skillet with cooking spray. Coat a 13 X 9 X 2-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Add turkey to skillet and cook over medium-high heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess liquid from pan and then add beans, 1 3/4 cups of salsa, chili peppers, chili powder and scallions. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes; stir in cheese.
  • Meanwhile, wrap tortillas in foil; warm in oven for 10 minutes.
  • Assemble chimichangas by spooning about 1/2 cup of turkey mixture onto each tortilla; fold in sides and roll up.
  • Place chimichangas in prepared baking dish. Bake uncovered until tortillas are crisp and browned, about 20 minutes. Serve each topped with 2 Tbsp of salsa and 1 Tbsp of sour cream.

Overall, I thought these chimichangas were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't amazing either.

The tortillas on these chimichangas were a bit too soft for my liking. I would prefer a crispier tortilla.

These chimichangas are a bit bland for my taste. I would add some more spices to the filling next time.

These chimichangas are a great way to use up leftover turkey from Thanksgiving. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

I'm not a big fan of turkey, but these chimichangas changed my mind! The filling was moist and flavorful, and the jack cheese melted perfectly.
