Chimichangas....veggie style!

Veggie (sort of) Chimichangas!

2 Morningstar Chipotle Black Bean Burger patties
6 Flour tortillas
1 cup cooked white rice
shredded Cheddar cheese

I save pretty much EVERYTHING from most dinners. I like to use and reuse to not waste. so my mom bought these bean patties at Costco and sent me home with 4 patties. we tried them hamburger style and we just weren't feelin' it. so the remaining 2 sat in the freezer for a long time! finally i decided that it was time to use them. but we already established the whole not loving the hamburger thing...so i grabbed everything i had left over and made some chimichangas out of them!

defrost the patties and then mash and heat in a skillet. while that is warming up shred your cheese and warm your rice in the microwave. I just had white rice in the fridge , it turned out to be perfect because the patties have ALOT of flavor! once everything is warm turn on your griddle or clean skillet get it pretty warm, warm enough to heat the tortilla with out burning and still sear the chimichanga. after you warm your tortilla ,fill with ( i used those cool cookie scoops, just so i get the same amount every time)2 scoops mashed patties, 2 scoops rice and a sprinkle of cheese. now the rolling seems to be the tricky part for alot of people. here is what works for me...put the filling in the center, tuck the ends in and fold the side of the tortilla closest to you and roll it all over. now spray the skillet or griddle with a little cooking spray and lay the roll seam side down to seal the seam.
And THERE YOU GO!
if you must...put some enchilada sauce on it, but might i suggest....

1/2 cup cream cheese
1-2 Tbsp milk/soy milk
2 Tbsp dried onions
1 Tbsp tomato sauce
salt
pepper

magic bullet this until its a dip consistancy. for those who enjoy the burn a couple red pepper flakes and your good to go! this is a dip not a poor over!
