Delicious served with all the accompaniments; guacamole, sour cream, grated cheese, jalapeño chillies and tortilla chips. 🧑‍🍳 Top tip: When cooking a mince dish like this one, it makes sense to double up and freeze a second meal for another day. 💡 Remember to recycle bits that you can't eat, like 🫑pepper tops and vegetable peelings in your food waste caddy.
