Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

8 ounces ground beef -- low fat

1/2 cup chopped onion

1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

1 cup salsa -- chunky

1 teaspoon chili seasoning mix

8 fat free flour Tortillas -- Kroger brand fajita size

1/4 cup sour cream, light

Preheat oven to 475º F.

Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with olive oil-flavored cooking spray.

In a large skillet sprayed with olive oil-flavored cooking spray, brown meat and onion. Stir in garlic, 1/2 cup salsa (I used more salsa in the meat mixture), and Jo's chili seasoning. Lower heat and simmer for 5 minutes.

Spoon 1/4 cup meat mixture into center of each tortilla. Lightly spray tops with butter-flavored cooking spray. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown.

For each serving, place a chimichanga on a serving plate, spoon 2 tablespoons salsa and 1 tablespoon sour cream over top.
