The run up to Christmas can be zero fun you guys, especially when you’re trying to be Healthy Helen before the Christmas food binge. But fear not because you seriously won’t believe how SHA-mazeballs this Mexican dish is and you will have it whipped up in seconds (slight understatement).

It’s healthy, whilst being super tasty. You wouldn’t believe how many times I have whipped this up after coming home from a long day, and it goes down as well as a time consuming Sunday roast.

Whilst that is simmering lay a mixed leave and herb salad (whatever you like) in the middle of a large serving plate. Scatter crispy tortilla crisps (I buy ours in Aldi) around the salad.
