Mexican Style Prawn Fried Rice

Name: Mexican Style Prawn Fried Rice
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 pack Cooked king prawns; 2 pouch Mexican-style rice; 1 Onion; 2 Peppers; 1 tin Sweetcorn; 1 tin Kidney beans; 200 g Cherry tomatoes; 4 Spring onions; 2 tbsp Tomato purée; 2 tsp Smoked paprika; 1 tsp Ground cumin; 1 tsp Garlic granules; 1 tsp Cajun; 1/2 tsp Chilli powder; 1 Water; 1 Avocado

This is one of those easy and speedy dinners which is great when you need a healthy dinner in a hurry and it is also a really good one for using up any leftover veg at the end of the week! I think this was one of my favourite meals this week, it was sooo flavorsome and contains half of your daily fibre requirements as well as being packed with over 30g of protein but still tasting really light and fresh! If fajitas or burritos are a hit in your house, I think you will love this one!!

I don’t like avocado but strongly believe everything is improved with cheese!! I accidentally brought kidney beans in chilli sauce and I’m not mad about it, gives it a good kick!! Dinner and lunch for tomorrow sorted 🙌🏼

Delicious despite the fact that I thought I had sweetcorn in the cupboard (I didn’t!) and the shop had no avocados 🙄 I used black beans instead of kidney as I prefer them. Another easy and tasty tea. Would be lush with halloumi ❤️

Loved this 😋 Didn’t have any Cajun on this occasion and swapped for Piri Piri, was so tasty! Plenty leftover for the next couple of days.

I had a portion of veggie bean chilli in the freezer so defrosted it and added to some rice (wouldn't have thought of that if not for the recipe inspiration!) I enjoyed it although the kids weren't so sure!

Super quick and easy. Prepped, cooked and eating within 20mins of getting home from work. Added a bit of extra spice and forewent the avocado. Defo adding in to the rotation - exactly the kind of quick and easy weeknight meal im after 👌
