Dinner: Black Bean Tacos

Black bean tacos with corn tortillas and cheese.

Prep Time: 5 mins

Cook Time: 10 mins

Total Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

2 extra thin yellow corn tortillas
2 tbsp shredded Mexican cheese
1 second olive oil cooking spray
2 tbsp black beans, mashed
2 tbsps salsa
0.12 cup shredded lettuce

Instructions

1. Spray hot skillet with olive oil.

2. Place 1 corn tortilla on to skillet and spray with olive oil. When tortilla starts to brown, turn it over.

3. Add half of the mashed black beans just barely off center and fold in half. Move taco off to the side of the skillet and repeat the process for the 2nd tortilla.

4. When the 1st side of the taco is brown and a bit crispy, turn taco over. Taco is done when 2nd side is brown and crispy. (Note, this isn't a "crispy" taco like you'd eat at, say Taco Bell. The corn tortillas are still soft, slightly chewy, and have a tiny bit of a crunch to them.)

5. Add a tablespoon of shredded cheese to each taco, along with salsa and lettuce before serving.

6. Note: 1 serving is 2 tacos. These are really good with a little bit of sour cream added and also with brown rice.
