- 80 g grated mozzarella
- 1 onion
- 2 peppers
- 200 g low-fat cream cheese
- 4 tsp lazy garlic

- 100 ml water

## Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 190°C.

3. Add everything into a large ovenproof dish except the mozzarella: pasta, chicken, veg, cream cheese, garlic, fajita seasoning, chopped tomatoes, salt and pepper.
4. Rinse out the chopped tomato tin with 100ml water and pour it into the dish. Mix everything really well so it’s evenly coated.
5. Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the top.
6. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes at 190°C.
7. Remove the foil and bake for another 5 minutes to melt and colour the cheese.
