with Avocado & Sour Cream
This week's special ingredient is Avocado - creamy, dreamy and packed with goodness! Give your avocado a gentle squeeze - ripe avocados yield slightly but aren’t mushy! If yours is firm, let it ripen on the bench (not the fridge!) until it’s just right. Add it to this tower stack to take it things to the next level!

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Grate carrot. Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help grate the carrot.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrot, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add beef mince and cook, breaking up mince with a spoon, until just browned, 3-5 minutes. TIP: Cook beef in batches if your pan is getting crowded!
• Add tomato paste, Tex-Mex spice blend, vegetable stock and the water. • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Season to taste. Little cooks: Help measure out the water!
• Place one mini flour tortilla on a lined oven tray. Top the tortilla with some beef & pork filling, spreading it into an even layer. Sprinkle over some Cheddar cheese. • Repeat this process until all the tortillas and filling are used up. • Bake until the top tortillas is golden, 10-12 minutes. TIP: If making for 4 people, build two tortilla towers. Little cooks: Take the lead and help assemble the tortilla tower!
