Steak and Pepper Fajitas
2021-02-04 08:36
We love fajitas, but normally I've made them with chicken, using a pack.
This recipe, though, is less hassle than using something like an Old El Paso kit - the prep is about the same, but then you just shove it in the oven and go do something else for 30 minutes. Tasty fajitas, with minimum effort.
You can use casserole chunks, or stir fry strips - whichever you choose, make sure it's decent quality meat otherwise it may come out too chewy.
If you've any left over at the end of the meal, keep overnight, then warm at lunch and put in a sandwich.
Chilli Burrito Tortilla Lasagne

OK, the name is a travesty, but it means I can easily find the recipe again. There's no Lasagne pasta in there.
This is a variation of Mary Berry's Mexican Tortilla Bake recipe - essentially making it easier/lazier to make and boosting some ingredients to reduce the amount of meat you need to put in.
If you want to make the chilli from scratch rather than using stir-in sauce, you can follow my Spicy Chilli recipe.
For ease of serving, I only put 2 Tortilla layers in - if you want more you can just adjust the amount of mascarpone/cheese you put on each layer.
You can prepare this a few hours ahead of cooking it if you want, just make sure it's left covered and in a cool area.

Nothing goes together quite like Chilli and cheese, but there are so many different presentations that can be had at the same time. Tacos are quick and easy, and make a change from rolling your own burritos.
You can go all out and make the chilli from scratch, or on a weekday you might prefer to buy some mince and a jar of chilli sauce.
