On the menu:

Sound good? Well it was! It was also extremely simple to make and as low in propoints as it was easy!

CHICKEN BURRITOS
Serves 3

400g chicken breast, skinless
1 can chopped tomatoes
1 red chilli pepper
1 heaped teaspoon curry powder
0.5 tsp cumin
0.5 tsp paprika
0.5 tsp oregano
0.5 tsp cayenne pepper

Place the chicken breasts in the chopped tomato and add the finely diced chilli pepper and all the herbs and spices. Place in a slow cooker on low for about 5 hours. After this time, shred the chicken breast in the sauce using two forks and leave in the slow cooker until ready to serve.

Take 3 tortilla wraps and warm in the microwave or in the oven for a short time. Layer with shredded lettuce (optional) and put a generous portion of the chicken mixture in the centre of the wrap. Roll up and serve with the refried beans and the salsa.

FIERY TOMATO SALSA

2 salad tomatoes, diced
1 onion, finely chopped
2 spring onions, sliced
0.5 green chilli pepper, finely chopped
2 cubes frozen cilantro
Salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste

Mix well and set aside for several hours before serving.

REFRIED BEANS

1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
Salt
1 can red kidney beans

Lightly fry the onion and garlic in frylight until translucent and golden. Drain and rinse the kidney beans well and add to the pan. Stirfry until the skins begin to slip off easily. Add a little water to the pan if it begins to stick. Remove from the heat and roughly blend or mash with a fork. Add salt to season.

GRILLED PERSIMMON

Slice one giant persimmon into about 6 reasonably thick slices. Grill in a George Forman for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve with frozen caramel alpro pudding - tastes exactly like ice cream!

PP VALUES - approximately 1/3 of the chicken filling is 4pp. A tortilla wrap is 3pp. The refried beans are 2pp for 1/3 of the mixture. The salsa is 0pp as are the persimmons. Half a pot of caramel alpro is 1pp.

TOTAL PER SERVING: 10pp

Buen Provecho!!
