“My cousin is of Mexican heritage, and I’ve watched her make these crunchy burritos for years,” writes Debi Lane from Chattanooga, Tennessee. “The very first time I made them for my own family, they became an instant favorite meal. They’re even better warmed up the next day in the microwave,” she adds. “A great leftover to snack on!” TIP: “Serve with Spanish rice or just chips and salsa,” Debi suggests.

This recipe was a HUGE hit in my household, that has extremely picky eaters. I took the suggestions of some other reviewers and popped them in the oven versus stove top because I wanted to cut back on the frying. Now my husband can't even go to the "Mexican" places around here because these were sooo good!!! Thank you!!!!

These were very good. My husband said they were as good as the ones at our favorite Mexican restaurant. I agree with the others, the heat was too high, they browned very quickly. Once I turned it down, they were fine. Will definitely make again.

These are delicious whether you call them burritos or chimichangas. I topped them with salsa verde and sour cream with a Mexican rice on the side. The only issue that I had was med-high turned out to be way too hot and I burned the first two. I lowered the heat to med and the rest were perfect. I will definitely be making again.

I substituted the ground beef for ground turkey, and used fat-free refried beans. Very simple recipe and very delicious. Goes great with a side of yellow rice.
