Instructions

1
  • Boil a half-full kettle.
  • Meanwhile, drain and rinse the kidney beans.
  • Pour the boiled water into a saucepan with 0.25 tsp salt on high heat. Boil the rice, 10-12 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain and pop back in the pan. Cover.
2
  • Meanwhile, heat a frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
  • Once hot, add the beef mince. Fry, 5-6 mins.
  • Use a spoon to break it up. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
3
  • Once browned, drain and discard any excess fat from the beef.
  • Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Add the kidney beans, chopped tomatoes, chipotle, red wine stock paste, sugar (see pantry) and half the cheese. 
  • Stir and bring to the boil. Simmer, 2-3 mins.
  • Add the spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
4
  • Share the rice between your bowls.
  • Top with the chipotle chilli.
  • Sprinkle over the remaining cheese.
  • Dollop on the smashed avocado.

Enjoy!
