Here in Texas, we call fried burritos chimichangas. Yummy!

This is my sister in law's "secret" family recipe for burritos. My favorite way to have them is with sour cream and jalapenos on the side. Thanks so much for sharing!!!

Great recipe Mom!! I had some hamburger I needed to use up, so I made this, very filling, and I had extras leftover!!! I will definately be making this again, even Tomy said it was a keeper, and tryed to eat a second one, even though he knew he was already close to being full. Hopefully you will be sharing a few more wonderful recipes soon.

My DH and DS gave this 2 thumbs up and each of them ate 3! I had eaten a late lunch and wasn't really hungry or in the mood to cook so this was perfect as it is quick and easy and something the boys would like. I did take a bite of my dh's before he was able to finish them all and found the burritos to be quit tasty. Will be making this a lot during football season only I will double the recipe and perhaps freeze a few for a quick dinner or snack. You did good girl!
