Pile tortilla wraps with meatless mince chilli and fresh tomato salsa for a delicious meal or side.

Jenny from Gousto said: “For the ultimate sharing dish, serve up these nachos directly from the baking tray rather that worry about dishing them up per person. Load up the sour cream and guac and you’re in for a delicious feast.”

- Toss everything together then spread them out and put the tray in the oven for 5-7 min or until lightly browned and crisp – these are your nachos

- Once the mince has browned, add the soy sauce, chilli flakes (can’t handle the heat? Go easy!), cumin and remaining smoked paprika to the pan and cook for 2 min or until all the mince is coated in the spices

- Meanwhile, drain and rinse the kidney beans

- Add the drained kidney beans to the pan along with 200ml [400ml] boiled water and the tomato paste

- Cook for 1-2 min or until the sauce has thickened to a bolognese-like consistency, then remove from the heat – this is your meat-free chilli
