- Heat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Cut the tortilla wraps into 8 triangles by slicing into quarters, then halving each quarter. Transfer to a bowl and drizzle over 1 tbsp oil. Toss well to coat.
- Transfer the tortillas to 2 large baking trays, spreading out in a single layer. Bake for 5-10 mins, until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven, transfer to a plate or bowl and leave to cool.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in an ovenproof frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the peppers and onion for 8-10 mins until tender. Add the fajita seasoning and fry for 30 secs, then tip in the baked beans and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently. Once bubbling, add the riceand heat through for 1-2 mins.
- Top with the Cheddar and bake in the oven for 5-10 mins until the cheese has melted. Serve the beans with the tortilla nachos for dunking in, or divide the nachos between plates and spoon over the beans and rice, if you prefer.
