Top Tips

If your family don’t like red kidney beans this is just as delicious with baked beans (you can use cheap supermarket beans as it adds no extra flavour with the branded ones). This dish can be loaded on to fluffy rice, a filling for enchiladas, loaded nachos, topper for a jacket potato and so much more. You can swap the minced steak for quorn as a vegetarian or healthier option! Using your batch minced steak and your italian tomato sauce this can be ready in less than 30 mins!
