Notes
Tips:
- For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free chorizo.
- You can replace the tinned kidney beans with 255g (9 oz/11⁄2 cups) cooked kidney beans, and you can replace the kale with trimmed silverbeet (Swiss chard) or English spinach leaves.
- To make 370g (2 cups) cooked brown rice, start with 165g (5 3/4oz / 3/4cup) uncooked.
