Larry's Black Bean Tacos

If I could give it ten stars, I would seriously. I've never cooked mexican before in my life because it's not really a big cuisine here unfortunately (Tacobell used to have outlets across the country and now it's left with only two standing) so yeah I've missed eating out at Tacobell. I used only one can of black beans because my family prefers meat. I think 1 can is sufficient, good enough for the flavour and great for the bite. I also minced two cloves of garlic and chopped up an onion to give it more of a juicy, aromatic bite. Other than that, I followed true to the recipe. The recipe does not mention whether to drain the beans/tomatoes so I followed my gut and drained the beans but I didn't drain the stewed tomatoes, just poured the whole can in. True enough, the remaining tomato juices provided enough moisture for the beef. Wonderful recipe, one that I would make again and again and again! Thank you!!

I just made this for dinner and it was a hit! I added a little bit of Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle seasoning for a little extra zip. I served it in a flour tortilla, like a burrito, with sour cream, lettuce, salsa, pickled jalepeno and red onion. I know all the extras add on to the time, but it's worth it. I will be making this again but I may cut it in half since it was really enough to feed at least 6 maybe 8. Thank you for the great recipe!!

These were quick, easy, and great for a mid-week meal. For the stewed tomatoes, I opted for the kind with garlic in them. I used soft tortillas to serve it in along with some shredded cheese and sour cream.

I didn't expect this to be so satisfying. Drained the beans, warmed up the tortillas I filled. Great quick "I hate cooking" recipe.
