Ingredients
- For the Tuna Fajita Mix
- Olive oil 1
- Red onion 1 medium, sliced
- Bell peppers (mixed colours) 2 medium, sliced
- Tuna in brine or oil 2 x 150g cans, drained
- Fajita seasoning mix 1-2 tablespoons
- Lime 1/2, juiced
- For the Bowl
- Cooked rice (basmati or brown) 200g dry weight (approx. 600g cooked)
- Black beans 1 x 400g can, drained and rinsed
- Sweetcorn 1 x 150g can, drained, or 150g frozen
- Avocado 1 ripe, sliced

- Salsa 100g
Method
- Prepare your vegetables: slice the red onion and bell peppers. Drain and rinse the black beans and sweetcorn if using canned.
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan or wok over a medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and peppers and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until softened but still slightly crisp.
- Add the drained tuna to the pan. Break it up with a spoon and stir in the fajita seasoning. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the tuna is heated through and coated in the spices.
- Squeeze the lime juice over the tuna and vegetable mixture and stir well. Remove from the heat.
- To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked rice between two serving bowls. Top with the black beans and sweetcorn.
- Spoon the tuna fajita mixture over the rice, beans, and sweetcorn.
- Garnish each bowl with sliced avocado, chopped fresh coriander, and a dollop of salsa.
