  Delicious! Our usual recipe is rather dry but the tinned tomatos did the trick. We added mushrooms, a yellow pepper and a small, simple stir-fry veg. packet for extra flavour.

  These were a bit too wet like Beth said but they were tasty i might try thickening them next time and season a bit more! Seemed like it was missing a flavour so will definately experiment with this one as i love to have freshly made food rather than jars feel like im cheating hehe!!

  These are very nice, very tasty. I would have preferred if they were slightly hotter so next time I'm going to use more chilli powder. Also I only used have a tin of chopped tomatoes and they turned out perfect, not too runny.

  Mine weren't too wet, but I used tomatoes in the thick, rich juice rather than the watery juice. These were a huge hit with my kids, which surprised me because I expected them to moan about the grren beans, but they thought the meal was wonderful, so will definitely be doing again.

  I love these! I have made them lots of times now, although I reduce the amount of chilli powder after the first time as they were a bit too hot for me! They are a bit wet, but I don't mind too much. I serve mine with a bit of grated cheese and I don't use sour cream as I don't like it.

  I cooked these for my chilli loving husband tonight and was disappointed when he said he only wanted one! I didn't have to wait long for him to do his Oliver impersonation. I had extra hot chilli powder so only used 1/2 tspn and took the advice of others and only used half tin of tomatoes, Perfect!!

  A little tip for those finding it a bit wet, when i sometimes find my meat sauce for lasagne's etc is a bit wet i put it through a sieve, saving the juices in a bowl to use for something else (we don't like waste) this brings the wetness down considerably, it may work with this too. This was my fellas idea and Ive adopted it ever since he told me about it. Anyway back to this. This recipe sounds lovely i will definitely be giving it a try.

  These are really good! I didn't find wetness a problem - serve with a spoon with holes in and you'll be fine. I bought the big tortilla wraps (the small ones were twice the price!), so put green salad and chopped tomatoes in the wrap with the food which gives a delicious 'fresh' element to the taste. That way you have to fold it like a burrito - put the food in a rectangle over the middle of the wrap, fold the bottom first and then the sides. I also used fresh chillies instead of chilli powder but ground coriander instead of fresh. Think fresh coriander would be better but ground works pretty well.

  Yummy! I added a tin of kidney beans to pad it out a bit and it was great. And so much cheaper and healthier to make your own instead of buying a jar of fajita sauce!
