Ingredients

  • 1 large red capsicum, chopped
  • 300g extra lean beef mince
  • 3 teaspoons mild paprika
  • 400g can four bean mix, rinsed, drained
  • 400g can finely chopped tomatoes
  • 60g baby spinach leaves
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 low-fat tortillas, warmed

Instructions

1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, deep-frying pan with lid over medium-high heat. Add capsicum and beef and cook, breaking up mince with a wooden spoon, for 5 minutes or until browned. Add paprika and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

2. Add beans, tomatoes and 1/3 cup water and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5–7 minutes or until sauce reduces slightly. Reserving a few leaves for garnish, stir in spinach, then cook for 1 minute or until just wilted.
