Number Of Ingredients 9

6 large flour tortillas
3 cup(s) mexican meat mix, thawed
- vegetable oil for frying
- shredded lettuce
GUACAMOLE:
2 - avocados, ripe, pared and mashed
1 teaspoon(s) lemon juice
- salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Warm tortillas in oven about 5 minutes. Heat 'Mexican Meat Mix' in a small saucepan. Heat 1/2 inch deep oil to 400F degrees in a large skillet. Spread about 1/2 cup 'Mexican Meat Mix' over the lower third of each tortilla. Fold the bottom edges of each tortilla up over filling. Fold both sides toward the center and roll into a cylinder. Secure rolled tortillas with a toothpick. Fry 2 chimichangas at a time in hot oil about 2 minutes until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot over a layer of lettuce. Top with green chili salsa, tomatoes, guacamole and sour cream. Garnish each with an olive.
