Notes:

• I used mountain bread when I made this Chicken burrito bake as I had some that needed using up.
• I didn’t have any refried beans handy so I combined a can of drained cannellini beans and a can of drained kidney beans and then pureed them together.
• I don’t use capsicum in my cooking as hubby is allergic but I am sure it would be delicious!
