Ingredients

Servings

For the Taco Filling

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 4 ounces green chilies drained, diced
  • 30.5 ounces black beans rinsed and drained
  • 3/4 cup tomato juice
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro finely chopped, fresh
  • salt
  • black pepper

For the Tacos

  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 10 corn tortillas
  • 8 ounces Monterey jack cheese shredded
  • guacamole for serving
  • salsa for serving

Instructions

For Taco Filling

  1. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium high heat. Add taco seasoning, minced garlic, onion powder, and diced green chiles. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until garlic is fragrant.
  2. Add black beans, tomato juice, cilantro, and salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, stir frequently, until most of the liquid evaporates, about 10-12 minutes.

For Tacos

  1. Heat coconut oil over medium high heat. Cook a taco shell on one side. Then flip so the crispy side is facing up.
  2. Place filling on 1/2 of the taco shell, ~2-3 tablespoons. Top with shredded cheese.
  3. Close the taco and press down so the filling flattens a little bit. Cook on both sides until the outside of the taco is crispy. Repeat for the remaining tacos.
  4. Serve with guacamole or salsa.

Notes

  • Looking for a vegan or healthier alternative?
