Add in the mild chilli powder, cumin, paprika, chopped tomatoes and chicken broth then stir until well combined. Once boiling - reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and leave for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile chop the avocado, tomato and spring onion into small chunks and peal the leaves from the lettuce.
Once the mince is ready, add 1 tablespoon of mince to each lettuce leaf, then top with avocado, tomato, spring onion, Greek yoghurt and pumpkin seeds to serve.
