Before you jump to Mike's Green Chile Chimichangas recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Foods That Can Make Your Mood Better.

Many of us believe that comfort foods are bad for us and that we need to stay away from them. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. Other times, comfort foods can be very healthy and good for us to consume. There are several foods that, when you consume them, can boost your mood. When you are feeling a little down and need an emotional pick-me-up, try a couple of these.

Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and other types of nuts. This is possible as these foods have a bunch of magnesium which increases your production of serotonin. Serotonin is referred to as the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling all the time. The more serotonin in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not only that but nuts, specifically, are a terrific source of protein.

You can see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are terrible for you just so to feel better! Try these suggestions instead!

The ingredients needed to cook Mike's Green Chile Chimichangas:
  1. You need Green Chile Chimichangas
  2. You need 2 can (16 oz) Rosarita Brand Refried Beans

  5. Use 1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro [packed]
  6. Take 1/2 cup Mexican 3 Cheese [packed]

  8. You need 2 can (4 oz) Generic Diced Green Chilies [fully drained + 2 cans reserves - or, Bueno Hatch Green Chiles]
  9. Get 1 can (2.25 oz) Sliced Black Olives [fully drained]
  10. Prepare 1/2 tsp Granulated Garlic - Onion Powder - Ground Cumin - Chili Powder
  11. Take 1/4 tsp Table Salt & Mexican Oregano

  13. You need 1/4 cup Your Favorite Green Or Red Salsa [preferably green]
  14. Take 1 Flour Tortillas [your choice of sizes - 4"6" 8"or 12"]
  15. You need 1 quart Cooking Oil [high heat oil]
  16. Get 1 packages Toothpicks
Instructions to make Mike's Green Chile Chimichangas:
  1. Gather and fully drain all of your canned ingredients.
  2. I actually use Bueno Hatch Green Chilies but that may not be available to you in your area. Nor, the Green Chilie Powder. I'll include a link to where you can purchase it in my, "Roast Your Own Chiles," recipe below. It's well worth having in your spice rack! - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/340607-mikes-roast-ur-own-chiles-20-recipes
  3. Add all spices and cheeses.
  4. Chop all of your vegetables. Excluding tortillas and oil, add everything listed, including 1/4 cup of your favorite salsa and mix well. Your salsa choice will be your only fluids in your bean mixture so don't forget it! ;0) Heat covered in microwave for 3.5 minutes. The short cook time is only meant to heat the beans and slightly soften your chopped vegetables. You'll definitely want that crisp [or chew] to your veggies in your chimichangas.
  5. Using what sized tortillas you've chosen, place bean mixture down the center of your flour tortilla. Add more cheese and additional green chilies to the top. Roll up as tightly as you can and seal tortillas with a toothpick. Fry toothpick side up first. I wouldn't use corn tortillas. They will crack and split on you every time. Do not overload your frying pan either. Go with two chimichangas at most.
  6. Deep fry your green chilie bean chimichangas in oil until browned and crispy. Drain on paper towels, remove all toothpicks and serve immediately. Consider serving a basic green chile dipping sauce, a homemade pico de gallo, salsa fresca, sour cream with chives and/or a red or green salsa to the side. Ice cold Mexican beers with lime also go great with these.
  7. If you'd like an EASY green enchilada sauce poured over the tops of these or even dipped into it, feel free to check out my one minute, seriously delicious enchilada recipe below. Three items is all it takes! - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/349604-mikes-1-minute-green-chile-enchilada-sauce
  8. Garnish as you desire. Chopped tomatoes, thin sliced lettuce and / or sliced cabbage with fresh chopped Cilantro are excellent bedding garnishment options. Guacamole, additional Hatch green chilies, green salsa and sour cream with chives are pictured. I also served these with the 1 minute enchilada sauce listed above in side bowls for dipping. Enjoy!
