This recipe is from a southwestern cookbook sent me by Nurslinda. It is easy and delicious. Serve with a green salad and refried beans and/or Spanish rice. Oranges make a good dessert.

I'm allergic to dairy. Can I use a different type of cheese?

I would not recommend this recipe. The chimichangas were bland and the sauce was too spicy.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chimichangas turned out terrible. They were soggy and the chicken was dry.

I didn't have any sour cream, so I used Greek yogurt instead. It worked great and the chimichangas were still delicious.

These were a bit too spicy for me, but they were still good. I would make them again, but I would use less chili powder.
