Mexican Bean Salad

Duration: Less than 30 mins

Serves: 2

This has been our go-to weeknight dinner for few years now, simply because it is filling, healthy and gets done in a jiffy. It goes well with breadsticks, flatbreads, toasted tortillas or even garlic baguettes.

Any leftovers? Stuff into a pitta bread or roll it into a tortilla and you have a tasty lunchbox for the next day.

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 avocados (peeled and stoned)

  • 2 tbsp salad dressing
  • 1 red chilli deseeded and finely sliced
