What you’ll need

Ingredient and allergen checks

  • Cheddar contains milk. Check the salsa, rice pouch and bean labels, and choose cheddar labelled suitable for vegetarians.

These notes refer to the listed ingredients. Check every product label and substitution for your own allergies, and avoid cross-contamination during preparation. A dietary label does not mean a recipe is allergen-free.
