Beef & Veggie Chilli with Potato Wedges

Hi everyone,

Okay so I know today is the second of February and we change things on the blog every month, but I had to share with you the amazing meal I made the other night. Out of the blue and not what I had originally planned to make but yummy and fulfilling. Now when I buy mince I usually do Spaghetti Bolognese or Enchiladas but I wanted to do something different as I had vegetables to use up.

So I started making potato wedges whilst I had beef mince cooking on a medium heat. Then the idea came to me. Beef & Veggie Chilli with Potato Wedges.

Ingredients:

4-6 Medium Sized Potatoes (I used Maris Pipers)

2 Bell Peppers

2 Courgettes

100g Frozen Peas

1 Onion

1 tin of Chopped Tomatoes

1-2 packs of Beef Mince (depends on how many people you're cooking for)

Pinch of Salt

Herbs to season

Fajita seasoning to taste

Method:

1. First put some oil in a pan, adding 1 chopped onion and gently cook the mince on a medium heat (being careful not to burn it)

2. Meanwhile peel and chop the potatoes into wedges and toss them in a bowl with oil, herbs and fajita seasoning.

3. Place the potato wedges onto a foil lined tray and cook in the oven at 180F/200C/Gas Mark 4 for 25-30 minutes.

4. Chop the vegetables and add them to a pan of boiling water for 5 minutes then add to the pan of onions and mince stirring together to combine.

5. Once combined and the mince is thoroughly cooked drain the oil then add the chopped tomatoes, herbs and fajita seasoning, stirring occasionally until combined.

6. Once the potato wedges are cooked and the chilli is done, take a breakfast or pasta bowl, adding the chilli first then the potato wedges on top.

Enjoy!
