with Rice & Cheddar Cheese
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.

1 sachet
Cheddar cheese
1 packet
Enchilada sauce
1 packet
Beef mince
250 g
Avocado

Olive oil

Water
1.5 cup
White wine vinegar

• To a medium saucepan, add the water and bring to the boil.
• Add basmati rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
• Cook for 10 minutes, then remove pan from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don’t peek!
• While the rice is cooking, slice avocado in half, scoop out flesh and roughly chop.
• In a medium bowl, combine avocado and a drizzle of white wine vinegarand olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Little cooks: Take the lead by tossing the salsa!
• When the rice has 5 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over high heat.
• SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less if you’re sensitive to heat! Cook
beef mince (no need for oil!) and Tex-Mex spice blend, breaking up mince with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes.
• Stir in enchilada sauce and a splash of water and simmer, until slightly reduced, 1 minute. Season to taste.
• Divide rice and Tex-Mex beef between bowls.
• Top with Cheddar cheese and avocado salsa to serve. Enjoy!
ELEVATE ME: If you’ve added extra ingredients to this recipe, roughly chop pickled jalapeños, then top burrito bowl with sour cream, jalapeños and torn coriander to garnish.
Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by sprinkling over the cheese!
