Notes
During the week it is often difficult to cook delicious, easy and nutritious meals, and traditional Tex Mex can be quite unhealthy, this is why I have created a veggie packed version with extra goodness from the wholegrain tortilla wraps and cooked in a way that that is still super delicious and full of fresh, zesty flavours. Eating wholesome self-cooked meals are ideal to improving general health, balancing blood sugar, weight loss and balancing hormones.
