BLACK BEAN AND POBLANO TACOS
There are many kinds of tacos, some piled high and overstuffed and some more minimal, meant to be more a snack than a meal. These little tacos are in the second category, similar to what you might find in a Mexican market for a quick bite. Savory black beans and roasted poblano chiles make a satisfying vegetarian version. Fresh soft corn tortillas, hot off the griddle, are essential.

Steps:
- Drain beans, put in medium pot, add water to cover and bring to a boil over hight heat. Add onion, bay leaf, epazote and salt and reduce heat to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 1 hour, longer if necessary, adding water occasionally if liquid falls below surface of beans. When beans are tender, taste and adjust salt. Keep beans warm in their broth.
- Meanwhile, roast poblano chiles over a charcoal grill, under the broiler or directly on a gas stovetop burners until skins are completely blackened and blistered. Set chiles aside to cool, then split lengthwise. Scrape away skins and seeds with a paring knife. Cut cleaned chiles into 1/2-inch ribbons, transfer to small bowl and season lightly with salt.
- To serve, warm the tortillas on a hot griddle or cast iron pan over a burner. Put 2 warm tortillas side by side on a small plate. With a slotted spoon, place 2 tablespoons beans on each tortilla. Top with a few shreds of mozzarella and 2 or 3 strips of poblano. Crumble a little queso fresco and drizzle about 1 teaspoon crème fraîche on each taco.
SWEET POTATO, POBLANO & BLACK BEAN TACOS WITH LIME & GOAT CHEESE
Steps:
- Melt butter in pan over med-high heat. Add sweet potato & Poblano peppers. Saute for two minutes, then add onions. Continue cooking until, the sweet potatoes are cooked through and onions are starting to caramelize.
- Add the paprika, cumin & salt. Stir a couple times to toast spices & add the beans, stir to warm, then take pan off burner, to add lime juice & cilantro, stir and set aside.
- Toast the tortillas under the broiler (or over flame if you have gas stove). The tortillas can burn fast so keep a close eye. Once one side is lightly toasted flip to toast the other.
- Place filling on tortillas, top with a fresh squeeze of lime, a little chopped cilantro & a sprinkle of goat cheese. Splash on a little hot sauce if you like. Serve.

WILD MUSHROOM BLACKENED POBLANO TACOS
Steps:
- Roast the poblanos on the open flame of a gas burner, turning occasionally, until well charred on all sides, about 4 minutes. Put in a bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap; let stand for 5 minutes. Peel the poblanos with a knife, scraping off the skin, then remove the stem and seeds. Cut crosswise into thin strips.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until they have released some of their liquid and are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the poblanos, coriander and garlic and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the cilantro and lime juice and season with salt to taste.
- Serve the mushroom poblano filling in warm tortillas topped with radishes, avocado, queso fresco, crema and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and the chile; cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 5 minutes.

BLACK BEAN AND POBLANO FLAUTAS WITH GUACAMOLE & PICO DE GALLO
When it comes to Mexican food, tacos typically get all the glory. In our opinion, flautas are an unsung dinner hero. They're technically just crispy, rolled-up tacos-but they're really so much more than that. Seriously, what could be better than warm, crunchy tortillas stuffed with all kinds of delicious fillings? Ours boast stewed and mashed black beans, diced poblano, and jalapeño-flecked pepper jack. They're then pan fried until deeply golden and topped with guacamole, pico de gallo, sour cream, and hot sauce.

Steps:
- Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Core, deseed, and dice poblano into ½-inch pieces. Drain beans over a small bowl, reserving liquid. Finely dice tomato. Trim and thinly slice scallions. Halve lime. In a separate small bowl, combine tomato, scallions, a big squeeze of lime juice, and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and poblano; cook until just softened, 5-6 minutes. Add Southwest Spice and half the beans (you'll use the rest in the next step). Cook, stirring, until fragrant and warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove pan from heat.
- Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add remaining beans and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 2-3 minutes. Add ¼ cup reserved bean liquid (½ cup for 4 servings). Simmer until warmed through, 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 TBSP butter. Remove pot from heat, then mash beans with a potato masher or fork until mostly smooth. Season with plenty of salt and pepper.
- Spread tortillas with mashed beans. Place a small amount of filling on one half of each tortilla, then sprinkle with pepper jack. Roll up tortillas, starting with filled sides, and place seam sides down on a plate.
- Wash out pan used for filling. Heat a large drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Place flautas seam sides down in pan. Cook, carefully turning so they stay intact, until golden brown and crispy, 1-2 minutes per side. TIP: Work in batches if necessary and watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Divide flautas between plates and top with guacamole, pico de gallo, sour cream, and hot sauce. Alternatively, serve with toppings on the side for dipping

Steps:
- • Wash and dry produce. • In a small pot, combine rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to use in step 4.
- • While rice cooks, halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; mince a few slices until you have 2 TBSP (3 TBSP for 4 servings). Dice tomato. Roughly chop cilantro. Zest and quarter lime. Halve, core, and thinly slice poblano crosswise into strips. • In a small bowl, combine minced onion, tomato, half the cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice to taste. Season with salt and pepper.
- • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion, poblano, and a pinch of salt; cook until veggies are browned and softened, 5-7 minutes. • Stir in beans and their liquid, stock concentrate, Southwest Spice, a big pinch of salt (we used ½ tsp salt; 1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until liquid has reduced, 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.
- • Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lime zest and remaining cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. • Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds.
- • Place tortillas on a clean work surface. To the bottom third of each tortilla, add 1⁄3 cup rice in a line. Top rice with ½ cup filling (you'll have some left over-serve it on the side!) and sprinkle with Monterey Jack. Add a dollop of smoky red pepper crema, a bit of pico de gallo, then half the guacamole (save the rest for serving). • Fold bottom side of each tortilla up over filling, then fold over left and right sides toward the filling. Roll up tortillas, starting with filled sides, to form burritos. TIP: For less mess, place each tortilla on a large piece of aluminum foil or parchment paper before rolling and wrap up with foil. Simply unwrap as you eat!
- • Halve burritos on a diagonal. Divide between plates with remaining rice, filling, smoky red pepper crema, pico de gallo, and guacamole. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.

This is something I whipped up one night with cans I had in the pantry. Try different pepper/bean combinations. For instance, red pepper and great northern beans; poblanos and black eyed peas. It seems like a lot of steps, but time went quickly as I used prepared ingredients.

Fold the filled tortillas over if desired and serve.

Then top with salsa and a generous handful of cabbage, and serve.

- Serve with your favorite toppings: These tacos are delicious with a variety of toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
