    nice way to use up roast chicken. I don't eat sweetcorn so substituted this for some yellow pepper. Also I love re-fried beans so added one can of these instead of one the kidney beans. Probably made it a bit more stodgy but tasted great.

    This is really delicious and filling, too. I forgot to put the cheese inside so put it all on top, which I preferred. I froze some then allowed them to defrost before cooking as per the recipe and this worked well too but i wish i had greased the tin first. The second time I made them I spread a thin layer of creme fraiche on each roll before sprinkling with cheese. I know this will increase the calorie content but it was jolly good.
