Easy and super filling. I thought they packed a bunch of flavor. Made as written, except I added the spices directly to the impossible burger- then mixed in the rest. Thanks for a fast dinner.
Easy to make, delicious!! Who knew “Impossible” had such tasty possibilities!! I crisped our chimichangas in a pan which was really quick. The flavor was spot on even for my pickiest eaters.
Great recipe, easy to make with lots of options to dress up based on each person’s preferences. I had enough left over that I could freeze the filling for a quick dinner on another day.
I added salt and a little garlic and onion powder to taste and used vegan cheese to make these vegan friendly. I also used cooking spray rather than oil. These came out perfect! Super easy, super quick. You can even prep them ahead of time and bake later. And this vegan beef is healthier than animal meat because it comes with fiber animal protein doesn’t have and without cholesterol that animal meat does have. On top of that, it’s better for the environment. “ Compared to meat from animals, Impossible Burger production uses 96% less land, 87% less water, and produces 89% fewer greenhouse gas emissions.” LOVE!
Another fantastic recipe using Impossible Burger! Only change I made was to use the 7″ flour tortillas to make Mini Chimi’s. The Impossible burger adds such great flavor and everything all comes together so well! Will make again for an easy, healthy dinner!
I made a double batch of these for my father ans sisters family. No one could tell it was made from plant based meat product. The recipe was super easy to make. Every one that had a chimi was very impressed and said they’d like me to make them again and put in the freezer for later meals. Ty so much was excellent. This is a happy repeat recipe.
The only change I made was that I added onions and bell peppers. Other than that, I made it as directed. These were really good. I would never know that it wasn’t ground beef. Super excited for something different than ground beef. Can’t wait to make again.
Really delicious. I like this better than using beef. Will make again. Next time I will try and cook in the air fryer
I added a little more seasoning to our personal tastes (paprika, more cumin, etc.) and stuffed these a little fuller so that I only ended up with 6 of them but ooohhh yumm these are amazing! Impossible Burger is an incredible meatless option – fantastic texture and flavor! These chimichangas were a huge hit in my house! We topped them with some diced avocado and tomato and a little bit of sour cream. Delicious!
These are easier to make then they look! They’re great served with tomatoes, lettuce, and sour cream. Next time, I’m going to put some of the cheese in the interior.
Due to a snafu that was entirely my own fault, these wound up as more like baked flautas (a taco-sized shell rolled up seam side down, sprayed with olive oil, then baked as specified). They were absolutely phenomenal, I served with sour cream and more salsa on top (we aren’t vegan). I also sauteed an onion with the meat bc mmm, onions! Thanks for sharing!
This recipe was delicious! I loved the crunchy bottom and edges on the tortilla after baking. The Impossible meat was so good and I don’t think anyone would guess it isn’t ground beef. I did add more filling to each tortilla and made less so they were a little bigger. I will definitely make again. Next time I will add some onion to the filling for a little crunch.
I added some jalapeno while browning the plant based meat product. Overall was nice, if I make it again I will really spice up the filling.
This recipe was a hit for us! It was very simple to pull together, and can be modified to suit anyone’s tastes and dietary requirements. I served the chimichangas with a side of cilantro jasmine rice and some chips and salsa. We’d never tried Impossible TM Meat before, but are now BIG fans! Tip – If you are unable to find the bulk meat, try subbing the patties (three 4oz equaled 12oz needed for the recipe).
11.21.20 This is my first time eating Impossible Burger, and what a pleasant surprise. The texture is just a bit different from ground beef, but the flavor is quite good and very similar. This is particularly true after you add all the ingredients included in this recipe. I’m not sure I’d be able to tell the difference between the chimichanga made with ground beef and the Impossible Burger. This was just a bit heavy on the refried beans, but that well could be just personal taste preference. This is a quick-and-easy, delicious recipe and a great introduction to plant based meat. Definitely would make again.
Very tasty and easy to make too, the whole family enjoyed these. I like how easy to adapt these are to personal tastes and ingredients on hand. Great recipe!
Simple, delicious and no one would ever know that they weren’t made with traditional ground beef. The whole family LOVED tese…a keeper for sure-yum! Thanks for sharing
These were fantastic and so easy! The Impossible cooks up in five minutes. I used homemade beans and vegan cheese to keep these completely vegan. What a delicious lunch! I would 100% make these again and I would stick to using Impossible.
