Mouldy wrap
Cooked it all. And went to heat up the fajitas and they are all full of mould. Even though the exp is 27/05/23
Love the taste
Love the taste of these but beware that the photo of the 'just add' items is missing two as it doesn't reference the red onion or the mashed avocado.
Really nice!
We tried these as an alternative to the Smoky BBQ ones, kids loved them and the adults too! Easy to do in the oven or air fryer, crispy coating is tasty and its nice with a creamy cheddar cheese and shredded lecture. Not spicy, just tasty!
Pleasant change
This kit is easy to use and makes a change for when using chicken pieces. Added some yogurt to it as I'm not a fan of spicy food.
Disappointing
Bought a couple of these on offer. It's been years since I tried an Ole El Paso kit and let's say that standards have changed. You get three things: Tortillas (which are pretty basic), a coating for chicken strips (which we couldn't eat all of and we tried) and a salsa sauce which was like the simple sauce from a tin of tomatoes. So although on offer this presents good value for money vs buying individual components, the components in the box were not worthy of our time or taste buds. Darn shame.
Good
Like breadcrumbs,used with chicken and fish,make easy lunch.
