A friend of mine sent me a message and asked if I would come up with a few recipes that could be made using store cupboard ingredients. Most of us will have onions, garlic, a tin of tomatoes and some sort of beans in our cupboard. Chorizo has a fairly long life so there is often a pack of that lurking in my fridge. This recipe is full of flavour and a lovely way to use up ingredients in your kitchen making it a budget friendly meal!
