Another yummy recipe from Hello Fresh was on the menu tonight; Mexican-Style Chicken with Roasted Peppers & Homemade Refried Beans and it was delish! I annoyingly forgot to select my menu’s for this week, so I was sent a random mix! We have actually tried this one before, but luckily it’s tasty so I didn’t mind cooking it again!
Usually speaking, if someone offered me Refried Beans for dinner, I would run a mile. Let’s face it, it’s not the most attractive looking side dish (maybe that’s just mine?!) and we all know, when it comes to food, I’m not one to step out of my comfort zone. With the help of the Shallot Onion & Chicken Stock pot, it really did give the beans a great flavour, and they are good for you.
As you can see, this recipe was very straight forward and super easy! Watch out for The Fajita seasoning! It had a fiery kick to it (I suppose I was warned), but thankfully I could handle it, which is just as well, because it tasted amazing! It’s a good dish for those who are trying to be healthy and watch what they eat (I’m definitely not one of those at the mo), it’s such a light meal and it doesn’t leave you feeling stuffed.
This recipe is definitely worth giving a go! It’s a perfect, quick, midweek type of dinner and you won’t feel too guilty washing it down with a glass of wine or two or following on with a few cubes (ahem bar) of chocolate! Here is the recipe card, if you fancy giving it a try. Enjoy!
