Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the sweet potato (unpeeled) into 1 cm cubes. Place the sweet potato on the oven tray lined with baking paper, drizzle with olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then roast for 20-25 minutes or until softened. TIP: Cut the sweet potato to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time.

2

While the sweet potato is roasting, finely chop the brown onion. Finely chop the red capsicum. Grate the carrot (unpeeled). Finely chop the tomato. Roughly chop the coriander. Shred the cos lettuce.

3

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Add the Mexican beef mince to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, for 4-5 minutes, or until browned. Transfer to a bowl. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the onion and red capsicum and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Add the carrot and cook for 2 minutes or until softened. Return the beef mince to the pan with the diced tomatoes and water and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until well combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4

While the Mexican mince is cooking, place the tomato and 1/2 the coriander in a small bowl. Drizzle with olive oil season to taste with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Heat the mini flour tortillas in a sandwich press or on a plate in the microwave for 10 second bursts, or until warmed through.

5

Set aside two portions of the Mexican beef for your lunch then take everything to the table. Top your tortillas with the cos lettuce and Mexican beef. Add a dollop of Greek yoghurt (reserve two tubs for your lunch). Sprinkle over a little shredded Cheddar cheese (we will use most of it for lunch!) and finish with the tomato salsa.

6

When you're ready to make lunch, drain the sweetcorn. Trim the green beans and slice into thirds. Divide the reserved Mexican beef mince between two microwaveable containers and top with the sweetcorn, green beans and sweet potato. Sprinkle over the remaining shredded Cheddar cheese and coriander. Pack the Greek yoghurt separately. At lunch, microwave the Mexican beef bowl for 2-3 minutes, or until piping hot. Top with a dollop of Greek yoghurt.
