Ingredients:

Serving

1 (16 oz) can fat-free refried beans
1 cup low fat shredded cheddar cheese
1 tbsp taco seasoning ( old el paso is best)
tortilla
pam cooking spray
garnishes of choice lettuce , salsa , fat free sour cream

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Mix beans, cheese, and taco seasoning thoroughly.
Microwave the tortillas for a short period to soften.
Place a large spoonful of mixture in center of tortilla.
Fold top down and bottom up, then fold sides over, into the shape of a chimichanga.
Place toothpicks into chimichangas to keep tortillas closed.
Spray both sides of chimichangas with Pam cooking spray (generic cooking spray works, but does not produce as crisp a result).
Place chimichangas on a nonstick cookie sheet or a sheet lined with foil.
Place chimichangas in the oven for 8 minutes.
Remove toothpicks and turn chimichangas to other side; bake for another 5 minutes.
Adjust cooking time as needed to obtain a crispy outside.
Garnish as desired.
