Bean and Cheese Taquitos
INGREDIENTS
8-10 siete almond tortillas or flour tortillas
shredded mozzarella cheese
1 can/container cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/4 yellow onion, diced
olive oil
1/2 teaspoon plus more salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
pepper
METHOD
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F convection of 425 degrees F regular.
In a pot, sauté diced onion in olive oil until golden. Add in garlic. Add in beans plus some water.
Then, add spices - 1/2 teaspoon salt to start, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, and pepper.
Stir everything together, cook for 5-10 minutes, mashing with a fork.
Once the beans reach your desired consistency, taste for salt and add more if necessary.
Heat up tortillas in the microwave or on the stove.
Spoon some of the beans onto the tortilla and sprinkle cheese. Wrap well. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, seam side down. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas.
Brush a little olive/avocado oil on the top of each taquito and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until taquitos are golden.
