Ingredients

2 cups cooked brown rice (left over)

1 cup chopped onion

In a large skillet, sautè the veggies in 2-3 Tbs of cooking oil. I used grapeseed oil.

Meanwhile fry your tortillas in oil until soft. Fold and lightly sprinkle with salt.
Place about 1/4 cup of bean mixture and top with your choice of toppings: shredded cabbage, cheese, avocado, cilantro, sour cream, etc.

Tips:

Prepare the ingredients in advance: Chop the vegetables, cook the rice, and prepare the queso dip ahead of time to save time when assembling the tacos.
Use a variety of toppings: In addition to the suggested toppings in the recipe, consider adding other favorites such as guacamole, salsa, sour cream, or shredded lettuce.
Make it a family activity: Involve the whole family in the preparation and assembly of the tacos. This is a great way to spend time together and create lasting memories.
Experiment with different fillings: The recipe calls for black beans and rice, but you can also use other fillings such as shredded chicken, ground beef, or tofu.
Get creative with the presentation: Arrange the tacos on a platter or serving tray with the toppings on the side. This will make it easy for guests to customize their tacos.
