Beef Chimichangas

1 teaspoon salt

2 lbs lean ground beef

2 cloves garlic, crushed

2 teaspoons ground cumin

2 teaspoons oregano, crushed

1/2 cup canned green chiles, chopped

1/2 cup taco sauce, La Victoria, red, mild

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup cider vinegar

1 cup butter or margarine, melted

9 7 inch flour tortillas

Sprinkle salt in medium skillet. Place over medium heat. Add beef, garlic, and spices. Cook until meat loses pinkness. Stir in green chiles, taco sauce, sour cream and cider vinegar. 

In 8-inch skillet, melt butter or margarine. Dip both sides of 1 tortilla into butter; drain off excess. Mound 1/3 cup filling on center of tortilla. Fold tortilla in envelope fashion. Place seam side down in ungreased 11x7 baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

Cook at 500 F until crispy (original recipe states for 15 minutes, mine have been done between 7-8 minutes). Sprinkle with cheese and return for a few seconds. Top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, avocado and additional sour cream.
