Vegetarian Blackbean/Hamburger Tacos

Recipe #298241 | 35 min | 20 min prep | 6 Tacos (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Bergy

This recipe uses Mexican flavored vegetarian Hamburger and it is very good. You may cook your own black beans but to simplify the recipe I used a 16oz can of black beans. Be inventive and add your own choice of vegetables. Your shells should be heated but watch they burn very quickly. I like to put everything on the table and let folks build their own so the shells stay crisp and the ingredients hot.
