1. fantastic and cheap way to use up leftover prawns & veg that was about to be thrown out. plus, my mexican-american husband said it tasted like home, which was one of the best compliments I’ve ever received!

   – prawns tossed in a mexican seasoning mix, extra garlic, and fried in avocado oil
   – canned corn was drained and chargrilled, then tossed in a sour cream / mayo / garlic / chilli & boursin mixture
   – courgette is just grilled with salt and avocado oil
   – guacamole was an avocado, grated garlic, juice of a whole lime, and plenty of sea salt
   – cabbage & onion is shredded, then dressed with lime juice, olive oil, & salt
   – rice steamed in chicken stock and a few saffron fronds

   total cost about £3.75 (€4,40) per plate – extra rice & cabbage salad is not pictured
