BLACK BEAN AND SWEET CORN TACOS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat and saute the red onion and garlic until softened, around 5 minutes. Add the cumin and cook for another minute. Drain the beans into a colander and rinse under cold water. Add to the pan and stir to combine with the other ingredients. Using a potato masher roughly mash the beans to bind them with the onions and garlic, but not too much, so you still retain some of the bean texture.
- Place the taco shells on a foil-lined baking sheet and put them in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes to warm.
- Meanwhile make the salad. Put all of the chopped and diced salad ingredients into a bowl. In a small bowl, mix together the mayo, lime juice and salt, using a fork. Pour over the salad and toss gently making sure everything is lightly coated in the dressing.
- When the taco shells are warm, remove them from the oven.
- Divide the bean mix evenly among the 4 tacos, top each one with a couple of slices of pickled jalapeno, a quarter of the sweet corn and a quarter of the salad and garnish with cilantro leaves. Devour.

Steps:
- Filling:
- Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low. Add in the onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until turning translucent. Add in the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Season with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to taste, then remove from heat. Add the cooked black beans to a large mixing bowl and roughly mash them. Stir in the onion mixture and combine well.
- Tacos:
- Once the filling is mixed together, add about ½ - 1 more tbsp of oil into the skillet and turn it to medium heat. Add 1-2 corn tortillas in a single layer and cook on the first side for about 10 seconds.
- Then, scoop about 3-4 tbsp of bean mixture onto one half of each tortilla. You can also add some grated vegan cheese on top if you want. Using a spatula, fold the tortillas in half and press down to shape the tacos. Cook on each side until golden brown, about 1-3 minutes.
- Continue cooking the tacos following this process until all the bean mixture is gone. Make sure to top up the oil as your pan dries out.
- Serve these black bean tacos warm with a side of vegan avocado cream sauce (instructions below).
- For The Avocado Sauce
- First, slice and de-seed your jalapeño. Then, de-pit the avocados and scoop out the flesh into a high-speed blender or food processor. Add the rest of the ingredients in except the olive oil and water.
- Blend on high until you achieve a smooth consistency, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. Turn back on to low-medium and add in the olive oil slowly.
- Taste and adjust the seasonings to your preferences. Add jalapeño for more kick, water to thin, lime juice for more tang, or salt to bring out the flavors. Enjoy!

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh black beans and corn. If using canned beans, rinse and drain them well before using.
- Be sure to season the beans and corn well. A simple combination of salt, pepper, and cumin is a good starting point.
- If you don't have any taco seasoning, you can make your own by combining chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, and garlic powder.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to the filling, such as diced bell peppers, onions, or zucchini.
- If you're short on time, you can use pre-made taco cups. Just be sure to warm them up before filling them.
- Serve the taco cups with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese.
