Baked Chicken Chimichangas
Description
These chimichangas are healthier than the classic ones because they are baked and not fried. They are still delicious and are easy to make.

2 c. cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken would be great)
1 c. salsa
1 t. ground cumin
1/2 t. dried oregano leaves, crushed
1 c. shredded Cheddar cheese
2 green onions, chopped
6 - 8 inch flour tortillas
2 T. butter, melted
