No-Fry Black Bean Chimichangas image

I'm allergic to black beans, so I substituted pinto beans. The chimichangas were still delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chimichangas didn't turn out crispy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These chimichangas were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best he's ever had.

I had some trouble getting the chimichangas to stay closed, but other than that, they were delicious. I'll definitely be making them again.
