My husband and I are trying to lose weight and eat healthier. The thing that I miss the most is going out to eat. These tacos taste just like they came from a restaurant and are so easy to make!

CRUNCHY BLACK BEAN TACO RECIPE
These tacos taste just like they came from a restaurant and are so easy to make!
Ingredients
- 1 (15 ounce) can black beans (drained and rinsed)
- ½ cup red onion diced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 Tablespoons cilantro chopped
- non stick cooking spray
- 8 corn tortillas
- 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 1 avocado sliced
- 1 cup salsa
- ⅔ cup sour cream
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine beans, chopped red onion, cumin, paprika and chopped cilantro.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place one tortilla at a time on the hot skillet and add about 1/4 cup of bean filling to one half of the tortilla. Top with a sprinkle of shredded cheese.
- Use a spatula to carefully fold the tortilla over so it forms a shell. Press down lightly on the tortilla with the spatula so it holds its shape.
- Cook each taco for about 3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve with avocado, salsa, sour cream or any toppings you prefer.

Could I use flour tortillas instead? They look delicious, but we don't care for corn tortillas.

I made these last night...so good! I used Chi Chi's flour & corn enchilada style tortillas, which worked really well. I enjoyed these so much, I made them for lunch :-) Thanks for a great recipe!

I made these tonight and the only changes I made was to use flour tortillas and I used a can of mesquite black beans and a can of regular black beans because that's what I happened to have in the pantry. My family loved them!

I made these for lunch today. I added some pre-cooked hamburger I had left over from tacos I made earlier this week into my boyfriend's black bean tacos since he is a meat man. I made him try one without the hamburger and one with and he preferred the one with, but I made mine as the recipe lists. They were really good especially with avocado slices. Thanks for sharing!

These are wonderful. Has anyone tried adding any ground beef to this ? Any tips on making ahead? I'm wondering if they can be refrigerated or frozen and reheated ?
