MEXICAN INSPIRED STIR FRY 🇲🇽
Yay! My last semester is sort of over, with just an essay left to write and a few appointments regarding my upcoming master thesis – need to figure out a final topic that really interests me…🤓🤨
Due to the stressful last weeks I ate a lot of easy one pan meals and this was one of them. A Mexican version of stir fry with good old beans, corn and rice and lots of PLANT PROTEIN 🥰
