GREEN CHILI, CHEESE, BEEF OR CHICKEN CHIMICHANGAS
My family used to call this "Cha-Ching Chimi's". They're pretty darn good if I do say so myself. Hope you all enjoy, too. Correction submitted: I incorrectly posted the amount of crushed red pepper flakes. A pinch, NOT 1/4 tsp. Sorry!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400º.
- In a large bowl mix beef (or chicken), chilis, cilantro, cumin, oregano, cheeses, crushed red pepper flakes and green onions. Divide mixture into 6 portions - about ½ cup each.
- Place one portion of the meat/cheese mixture in a line on the tortilla, leaving room to fold.
- Fold sides over to about 1" each side - just covering filling.
- Roll up from the bottom. Using a pasty brush, brush seam side with a little olive oil. Place seam side down on baking sheet.
- Repeat for remaining tortillas.
- Brush tops with remaining olive oil.
- Bake on center rack of oven at 400º for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Garnish as desired and serve with refried beans, rice or salad.
