BLACK BEAN TACO SOUP
This is a hearty soup/stew that is great to make on a chilly day. We usually have it for lunch, but with the addition of a simple salad (such as one consisting of letture, red onion, yellow bell pepper and topped with a basic vinaigrette), cornbread and a caramel flan for dessert, it would make a delicious dinner meal as well.

Yield 35 to 40 fritters
Number Of Ingredients 20
Steps:
- For the fritters: In heavy bottomed pan over medium-high heat, heat the oil and cook the bacon, onions, and celery until golden brown, and stir throughout the cooking with a wooden spoon.
- Turn the heat to low and slowly stir in the thyme, garlic, and lemon juice. Continue to cook for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. Add half the beans and smash with a masher or fork until semi-smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Stir in the remaining beans and blend well with a spoon. Stir in the parsley, baking powder, flour, egg, cheese, and some salt and pepper. The mixture should be moist to the touch, not watery. You can add more flour if the mixture looks runny, just stir in a little bit at a time until it thickens. Place the fritter mixture in the refrigerator to chill.
- Pour the oil into a cast iron skillet or deep saute pan, filling the pan 1/4-inch up the sides. Bring the oil to 350 degrees F (use an oil thermometer).
- For the topping, stir a few shakes of hot sauce into the mayonnaise. Taste it. You want some heat, but not too spicy.
- In a bowl, whisk together the cornmeal and flour. Remove the batter from the fridge.
- Spoon 1 tablespoon of the batter into the cornmeal-flour mixture and roll it around to coat. Carefully drop into the hot oil. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Turn the fritters as you're cooking them to cover them carefully with oil. Cook a few fritters at a time but don't crowd the pan.
- Remove the cooked fritters to paper towels to drain. Serve them hot with a bit of spicy mayo on top. Garnish with chopped chives.

CORN AND BLACK BEAN TACO SALAD
Steps:
- Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the oil. Add the diced onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions begin to soften. Add the green bell pepper, chili powder, cumin and salt. Cook for about 3 minutes until the peppers begin to soften. Add the corn and cook for about 3 minutes. Add the black beans and the water and continue cooking for about 7 - 10 minutes over medium heat until the water is almost evaporated. Remove from the heat, let cool and then refrigerate. While the corn and black bean mixture is cooling slice the lettuce and the tomatoes. Shred the cheese. When ready to assemble place the broken taco shells in the bottom of a large bowl. Top with the lettuce and then the corn and black bean mixture. Arrange the tomato wedges around the edges. Top with the shredded cheese, then spoon the sour cream on top and serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe, fresh black beans. You can cook your own or use canned beans, but be sure to rinse and drain them well before using.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and seasonings. Cumin, chili powder, and garlic are all classic taco flavors, but you can also try adding chipotle powder, smoked paprika, or even a touch of cinnamon.
- If you're using a food processor or blender to make your black bean mixture, be careful not to over-process it. You want the beans to be slightly chunky, not completely smooth.
- Serve your black bean tacos with your favorite toppings. Some popular choices include salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese. You can also add lettuce, tomatoes, onions, or jalapenos.
Conclusion:
Black bean tacos are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're also a great way to use up leftover black beans. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will love.
