I found this recipe in one of my Taste of Home magazines and decided to give it a go, since it had all the things I love in it. It was delicious!

At the end of this video, I have two clickable links. The first is for my playlist for Cinco de Mayo: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoFCUKOoR9lsSkqRTz8NmnNFOf6C5EsKV Please browse through it, you may find something you'd like to prepare in it!
There will also be a link to the Spanish rice recipe, when I load it a little later this week.

1 pound ground beef
1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
3 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce, divided
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
12 flour tortillas (10 inches), warmed
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
1 can (4 ounces) chopped jalapeno peppers
Oil for deep-fat frying
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese

In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the beans, onion, 1/2 cup tomato sauce, chili powder, garlic and cumin.

Spoon about 1/3 cup of beef mixture off-center on each tortilla. Fold edge nearest filling up and over to cover. Fold in both sides and roll up. Fasten with toothpicks. In a large saucepan, combine the chilies, peppers and remaining tomato sauce; heat through.

In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat 1 in. of oil to 375°. Fry the chimichangas for 1-1/2 to 2 minutes on each side or until browned. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with cheese. Serve warm

I'm working on a website! It will take some time to get it going, but here it is: http://www.cookingandcrafting.com/

Tammy and I have been friends for many years and met here on YouTube! Since then we have met up in real life many times. You will LOVE her tutorials and learn how to decorate cupcakes better than most bakeries do. She lives in Canada, but I really wish she lived next door.

Also check out Jenn. You will love her as well. http://tinyurl.com/lahtvfp
She and I have just recently become YT besties, have now met in real life twice and done some video collaborations together. When we are together, we "get" each other. It is hard to explain to people sometimes what you do and it is nice to be comfy knowing that she also understands everything I am talking about. Oddly enough, she too lives in Canada. I may have to move there soon since such awesome ladies are produced there!

Lastly, smile! I like it when you smile
