This was delicious. I made a couple of changes (had to use what was in the pantry). Instead of tomato sauce, I blended up a can of tomatoes. I added some salsa to the meat mixture. I used a whole onion instead of measuring out 1/2 cup. Also, I substituted whole wheat tortillas for regular white flour tortillas, and used olive oil instead of butter. After they were done baking to a crisp, I sprinkled medium cheddar cheese over the chimichangas and baked them for another three-five minutes (until the cheese was bubbling). Then I spooned the sauce over the top. Served with a green salad. It was simple to make, and a hit! They were VERY filling. Next time I will use the suggestion to freeze some of the chimichangas. Thanks for a super simple & tasty recipe! I will make this again.

What a fantastically easy and delicious recipe! I made this pretty much exactly to recipe, and it was perfectly spicy for me. I baked some fresh and froze some. When I thawed and baked those, they were just as good as the fresh chimichangas. I was very pleasantly surprised! I actually only made 6, I froze the filling from the other 4 for the next time I make tacos, I think it will work wonderfully. Thank you for a fantastic, easy, OAMC recipe.
