Ingredients
  

For the Creamy Black Bean Filling
  • ½ cup canned Black beans drained
  • ¼ cup Grated cheddar cheese (30 grams)
  • 3 tbsp Sour Cream
  • 1 tsp oil
  • 3 tbsp Finely chopped Onion
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • ¼ tsp Cumin
  • ¼ tsp Paprika
  • ¼ tsp Chilli flakes for heat
For Serving
  • 2 small taco shells or flour/corn tortilla
  • fresh cilantro chopped (optional garnish)

Method
 

  1. Heat a small pan over medium heat. Add oil and onions to the pan and saute for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly translucent.
  2. Add the drained black beans to the pan. Add seasonings and toss for about 30 seconds until the beans are well-coated with the spices and heated through.
  3. Now remove the pan and immediately add the sour cream and grated cheddar cheese to the warm bean mixture. Stir until the cheese melts completely, and everything combines into a smooth, creamy, luscious filling.
  4. Heat the taco shells or tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for 15 seconds each side. Spoon out the creamy black bean mixture into the center of each shell.
  5. Sprinkle some fresh cilantro over the top (if desired)
  6. Transfer to a plate and serve hot.
