Ingredients:

  • 2 tortillas
  • 5 ounces ground beef
  • 1/4 cup kidney beans
  • 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar
  • 1 tablespoon picante sauce
  • 1 tablespoon diced onion or tomato, optional

Instructions:

  1. Brown the ground beef and season it with taco-style spices.
  2. Warm the kidney beans with a spoonful of water and mash a few of them with the back of a spoon so they become creamy.
  3. Warm the tortillas until soft.
  4. Fill each tortilla with beans, beef, cheddar, and picante sauce.
  5. Fold gently and serve right away while the tortillas are warm and the filling is cozy.

Why it works: The beans make the tacos soft and hearty, while picante sauce brings the bright tomato flavor.

Optional: Add guacamole or cucumber for a cooler summer topping.
