Turkey and Cheese Chimichangas (Ww) image

We had these last night with recipe#246807 for a wonderful simple supper. If following the WW flex plan these are 5 points each. I used medium-hot salsa (Garcia's kitchen) for the turkey mixture and topped with hot salsa (Los Cuates). Recipe source: WW web site.
