Crispy black bean tacos make the best dinner! I can't understate how much I love these cheesy, crispy quesadilla-meets-tacos. Set them on the dinner table with chili crisp crema on the side and watch the compliments roll in.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 small onion minced
- 15 ounce can black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 cup frozen corn thawed
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- salt and pepper to taste
- 8 inch tortillas
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
Chili Crisp Sauce
- ½ cup sour cream can be light
- ¼ cup mayonnaise can be light
- 1 tablespoon chili crisp
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Start by making the sauce so the flavors have time to deepen while the tacos bake. Mix the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set it aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until it's translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the black beans, corn, and taco seasoning and stir. Mash the beans a few times with the back of your stirring spoon. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of oil on a baking sheet. Wipe the oil onto both sides of the tortillas - see video below. Sprinkle half of the cheese over one half of the tortillas. Top with the beans and then add the rest of the cheese on top. Fold the tortillas over and press down on them so they still together.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the tacos are hot. Serve with the sauce on the side for dipping.
