Description

A delicious and easy beef fajitas recipe perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tsp Sunflower oil
  • 500 g Beef mince (I use 5% fat)
  • 2 tbsp Fajita seasoning
  • 2 tsp Garlic granules
  • 2 tbsp Tomato puree
  • 400 g Kidney beans (1x tin drained and rinsed)
  • 100 ml Water
  • Sea salt
  • 8 Small tortillas wraps
  • 100 ml Sour cream (Or yoghurt)
  • 1/2 Iceberg lettuce (Shredded)
  • 2 Salad tomatoes (Finely chopped)
  • 60 g Cheese (Grated)

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a saute pan over a medium heat. Add the beef and brown all over for about 5 minutes, breaking up with a spoon.
  2. Add the fajita seasoning, garlic granules, tomato puree, kidney beans, water and a sprinkle of sea salt. Cook for a further 5-10 minutes until the beans are hot and the meat is well cooked.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the tortillas according to the pack instructions (microwave, oven, gas flame or toaster all work!).
  4. Pile in the fillings (or let everyone help themselves) and serve!

Notes

  • Feel free to add more vegetables to the filling as desired.
  • You can substitute beef with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
