1 tsp onion powder

½ tsp Pure Food Essentials Organic cayenne powder

 ½ tsp paprika

1 tsp Planet Organic Chilli Flakes

½ tsp Pure Food Essentials Organic Cumin

½ tsp oregano

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp Pure Food Essentials Organic Black Pepper

Taco Filling

1 brown onion, diced

2 medium truss tomatoes, diced

1 green capsicum, diced

1 small jalapeno pepper sliced (optional)

1 can Honest to Goodness Red kidney beans

Homemade Taco seasoning – as above

2 bunches of fresh Cos lettuce

Method

On medium heat fry onion, tomato & capsicum (& optional jalapeno pepper) until juices appear then turn heat to low.

Rinse red kidney beans in a colander, and then add to the fry pan. Sprinkle homemade seasoning into the mixture, and simmer on low for 2-5mins.

Whilst simmering wash lettuce leaves and separate leaves onto plates, when mixture is heated through and giving off an aromatic scent, scoop a small amount into individual leaves.

Top with mashed avocado, Tofutti Dairy Free Sour Cream, and Daiya Vegan Cheddar Cheese!
