Time 10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium red onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
One 15-ounce can black beans
4 corn taco shells
1 baby gem lettuce, roughly chopped
1 cup baby spinach, roughly chopped
1 cup arugula, roughly chopped
1 Hass avocado, diced
8 cherry tomatoes, quartered
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 lime, juiced
Pinch flaky sea salt
8 slices jarred pickled jalapeno
1/2 cup sweet corn, thawed to room temperature
Handful cilantro leaves, to garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat and saute the red onion and garlic until softened, around 5 minutes. Add the cumin and cook for another minute. Drain the beans into a colander and rinse under cold water. Add to the pan and stir to combine with the other ingredients. Using a potato masher roughly mash the beans to bind them with the onions and garlic, but not too much, so you still retain some of the bean texture.
  • Place the taco shells on a foil-lined baking sheet and put them in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes to warm.
  • Meanwhile make the salad. Put all of the chopped and diced salad ingredients into a bowl. In a small bowl, mix together the mayo, lime juice and salt, using a fork. Pour over the salad and toss gently making sure everything is lightly coated in the dressing.
  • When the taco shells are warm, remove them from the oven.
  • Divide the bean mix evenly among the 4 tacos, top each one with a couple of slices of pickled jalapeno, a quarter of the sweet corn and a quarter of the salad and garnish with cilantro leaves. Devour.
