“Pizza Beans” is another winner from Deb Perelman of Smitten Kitchen, it takes all the things we love about a great pasta bake ie cheese and turns it into what can be considered quite a healthy dish. I challenge even the biggest bean “hater” not to like/love this bubbling, cheesy, […]
This quick and easy recipe gives you super tasty, tender chicken to stuff into corn tortillas for simple tacos with authentic flavours. If there are any leftovers it makes a tasty topping for nachos.
