1/2 cup green pepper, chopped

remove from heat, add cheese
spoon mixture into center of shell, fold over edges and form into squares
place chimichangas in pie iron and heat over the camp fire!
can serve over hot refried beans, top with lettuce, tomato, sour cream, salsa, whatever you like.
I make this ahead of time, and wrap them in tinfoil and throw them in the freezer.
Take out a day ahead of time to thaw.
Idea from Lindsay.... we added Spanish rice to the next batch we made, and it worked great! I made the rice, and then added it to the completed chicken/cheese mixture. It also froze really well!
What a great idea for pie irons- especially freezing ahead and bringing frozen to campground!
