Black Bean Tacos

Just made these for lunch! At first glance, it might look like a regular meat and cheese taco with lots of lettuce and pico!   BUT, it is a vegetarian taco with black beans and carrots!  They turned out super delicious, were SO SIMPLE and I am so ecstatic to say...my children gobbled them up!!

Black Bean Tacos
8 corn taco shells
1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can (4 oz) diced green chiles
garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder
ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika
salt and pepper
carrot, finely shredded
fresh cilantro, chopped
pico de gallo or salsa
red leaf lettuce, chopped
fresh chives, chopped
In a pan, heat up beans and chiles.  Add seasonings to desired taste. It is as simple as that and you are ready to assemble your bean taco!!  Layer all in taco shell...bean mixture, shredded carrots, cilantro, pico/salsa, lettuce, and chives.
