Ingredients:

  • 1 can 15 oz black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels fresh, frozen, or canned
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions:

Warm up the olive oil in a big pan over medium-low heat

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic

Saut for about two to three minutes, until the onion is clear and smells good

Put the corn kernels and diced red bell pepper in the pan

After that, cook for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft

Add the ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper, along with the drained black beans

Add two to three more minutes of cooking and keep going until everything is hot

In a different bowl, mash the avocado and add the chopped cilantro and fresh lime juice

This will make the avocado cilantro-lime sauce

Follow the directions on the package for how to warm the tortillas

Spread some of the black bean mixture on each tortilla before putting the tacos together

Spread the avocado-cilantro-lime sauce on top of the toppings

Add some fresh cilantro leaves as a garnish
