Mexican Beef with Salsa - Week 33, 2016

I just want to break out into mexican dance when I think about cooking this.  Simple, delicious, thermomix mexican beef with salsa for dinner tonight! Tacos/burritos/jaffles it really doesn't get much easier than this for a quick dinner meal that has so many versatile uses!  Baked potato filler, spaghetti (add a little cream cheese to give it a creamy mexican taste), tacos, burritos, jaffles, add some in a lasagna, make a shepherd's pie - I don't think I need to say anymore!  :)

WHEN you have made this let me know what you made from the suggestions above.  If you have time and space make a double batch and freeze in portions for other quick meals on those busy nights.

We really enjoy having this with a baked potato done on the BBQ along with all the taco condiments and then we usually have enough left over for a quick taco or burrito (depending what is in the cupboard) lunch the next day.
