About this recipe:
This vegetarian dish is high in fiber and packed with flavor.
Ingredients:
- 1 yellow onion
- 3 cups cauliflower
- 1 poblano
- 12 corn tortillas – 6" sizes
- 2 ½ tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 2 cups canned black beans
- ¾ lime
- 1 ¾ tsp cumin
- ¾ tsp chili powder
- 1 ⅓ cups canned diced tomatoes
- 2 avocados
- 3 ½ tbsp fresh cilantro
Instructions:
- Peel and dice onion. Chop cauliflower into small (1/2-inch) pieces. De-seed and mince poblano.
- Preheat oven to 275° F (135° C). Wrap corn tortillas in foil and place in the oven to warm.
- Heat 4 tsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add poblano and half the chopped onion. Cook 5 minutes, until softened. Add garlic and a pinch of salt; cook another 1 minute. Add drained black beans and cook 2 minutes, until warmed through.
- Transfer the bean mixture to a blender or food processor; add 4 tsp lime juice, 4 tbsp water, the cumin and a pinch of salt. Pulse until mostly smooth, then adjust seasonings to taste.
- In the empty skillet, heat remaining 4 tsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the remaining onion and cook 3 minutes. Add cauliflower and cook 4 minutes more, until lightly brown. Stir and continue cooking another 4 minutes, or until tender.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Sprinkle chili powder over the cauliflower and stir well to coat. Stir in the diced tomatoes and season with salt to taste.
- Spread each tortilla with bean mixture, cauliflower, avocado slices and cilantro. Enjoy with a knife and fork.
