Ingredients

• 1 can black beans
• 1 onion
• 8 mini peppers (red, yellow, orange)
• 1 lime
• 1 avocado
• 1 bag of cheddar cheese
• 1 package of corn tortillas

• Step 1

  Slice up the onions.

  Heat a pan at medium heat with a little olive oil, add onions when hot.

  

• Step 2

  Slice n’ Dice round 2:

  Cut up your mini peppers into even smaller slivers. Add them into the pan with the onions and let them sizzle.

  

• Step 3

  Let those gals sautee in the pan for about 20 minutes. If you want to give your mouth a tasty surprise, squeeze a lime onto those sizzling bad boys.

  Stir occasionally so they don’t burn.

  

• Step 4

  Crack open a can of black beans and pour them into a separate pan on low heat. Heat, stirring occasionally, for about five minutes.

  

• Step 5

  After heating, grab a fork and start mashing.

  #SpoonTip: I highly suggest blasting your favorite Enrique Iglesias song while doing so; the beat of the music will facilitate efficient bean mashing.

  

• Step 6

  Take the onions off the stove and admire how good looking they are.

  

• Step 7

  Warm the tortillas by placing them in a pan on low heat.

  #SpoonTip: wrap tortillas in a towel to keep them warm and fresh.

  

• Step 8

  To assemble:

  Fill the tortillas with all the goodies you just cooked. Take a good look and bask in the glory of the sexiness radiating out of those tacos.
