  • 1 large bag of mixed peppers (£1.29)
  • 100 ml sour cream (£0.95)

  • 2 limes (£0.69)
  • Bunch of coriander (£0.29)

Cupboard Essentials

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 3 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt

Instructions

*Preheat oven to 180°C*

  • Start by washing the sweet potatoes and peppers. Slice into regular bite size pieces and add to a large baking tray.
  • Drizzle 2 tbsp of olive oil along with the tex-mex seasoning; 1 tsp chilli Powder, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp ground coriander, 1 tsp paprika, ½ tsp garlic powder and ½ tsp dried oregano, spreading with your hands to evenly coat everything.
  • Pop in the oven, timer set to 40 minutes (give the tray a shake half way through).
  • Meanwhile, add 1 tbsp of olive oil to a frying pan on a medium heat. Pour in the quorn pieces and season with 2 tsp of paprika, ½ tsp oregano and a pinch of salt.
  • Gently fry for around 12 minutes and set aside.
  • Once the timer has gone off for the tray bake, divide up the sweet potato/pepper mix into 5 meal prep bowls. Repeat for the quorn pieces. Store in the fridge and eat throughout the week.

When you are ready to eat, reheat in the mic for 2 mins and serve up with some freshly diced tomato, a dollop of sour cream, coriander and a squeeze of lime. MMMMM!
