    I always read a recipe like a novel to get ideas and then adjust to suit myself. I used Pork mince, packet of microwaveable black rice and a tin of the Heinz chilli beans for the filling.
    Then poured some salsa over the top. Placed some cauli in the gaps. Used the tea-towel method.
    Absolutely delicious. Thanks so much for the original recipe. Couldn’t have made this without it!!!????????
