Crispy flour tortillas wrap refried beans, melted cheese, and jalapeño peppers in these vegetarian chimichangas. They’re sold frozen and cooked in the oven or air fryer, which firms up the shell and warms the filling through. The filling leans creamy from the beans and cheese, with jalapeño bringing the heat rather than extra bulk. Compared with other El Monterey chimichangas, this version stays on the bean-and-cheese side instead of using meat. Each piece is individually wrapped, so you can heat one or a few at a time.
