Chicken Chimichangas

Might be good with  Natalie's Corn Salsa...

2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
2/3 cup salsa
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 tsp. Oregano
1/2 tsp. Cumin
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/4 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. Flour
veggies (carrots, peas, peppers)
2 cups grated cheese
8 flour tortillas

Mix the first 9 ingredients together & simmer 5 minutes at medium heat. Remove from heat and add cheese. Brush outside of tortillas with butter. Place mixture on inside. Fold ends in and roll. Place in a baking dish. Bake at 475 for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with lettuce, sour cream, cheese and guacamole, etc.
Also good with pork instead of chicken.

Corn Salsa


1/2 cup Olive oil
1/2 cup White vinegar
1 pkg Ranch dressing mix

2 cans Mexicorn, drained
1 can black beans, drained
4 Roma tomatoes, chopped small
1/2 Red onion, chopped small 
2 Avacados, chopped

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, white vinegar, and  the powdered ranch dressing mix.  Add beans and veggies and mix well.  I always add the avacado last, right before serving.  It's almost better on the second day... although the avacado will turn a little brown - but will still taste delicious!
