Wskazówki dotyczące przygotowania posiłku
This recipe is one of my favorite options for a whole week of healthy dinners that the whole family loves.
It’s very easy to make it by doubling the recipe and making it in a large dish.
Then, slice it into typical portions and store them individually in small containers. You can then keep them for 4 days in the fridge or up to a month in the freezer.
Thought maybe I’d overcooked it, but tasted great!
Dziękuję bardzo!
I’m making this for dinner today. Hoping the kids will like it. Is the oven temperature given for a standard oven or for a fan oven?
This will definitely be on repeat for me , I added some zucchini to it for extra veggies and some cheese on top . Love this !!!
Thank you for your lovely review! It sounds delicious with added veggies.
Standard oven, let me know how it goes.
Dziękuję za podzielenie się przepisem!
Made this last night and it came out delicious! My fiancé does not like quinoa but I was certain he would like this. I did make some substitutions just because this is what I had. I used almost a cup of taco sauce and added some tomato paste and the other cup was tomato sauce and the remainder of the tomato paste. I seasoned it with some cayenne and salt. I used only one can of beans and added instead 1.5 cups of shredded chicken breast which I mixed in after baking for 30 minutes because I wasn’t sure if it would dry out. I skipped the peppers. I also added cheese on top.
Just made this came out so tasty served it with burrata I’m still salivating. Thanks for the recipe
I’m glad you liked it!!
Hi, can I substitute anything
for Enchilada sauce?
You can use taco sauce or just tomato passata.
Very tasty! I’m normally not a fan of quinoa but I wanted to give it a go – not disappointed, it was actually really good
