Black Bean Tacos

We enjoyed these - Jeremy a little more than me. But they were still quite tasty and something different.

Crispy Black Bean Tacos

Ingredients:
2 cups cooked black beans (I used 1 15 oz can, drained)
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne
2 tsp olive oil
1 lime, juiced
2 c. coleslaw mix
2 green onions, green part only
1/3 c. cilantro, copped (I used a cilantro paste - not a full 1/3 c.)
6 corn tortillas
1/2 c. feta cheese
Hot sauce or salsa to top (optional)
Sour cream or plain greek yogurt (optional)

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees
2. Place beans, cumin, cayenne, and garlic powder in bowl and partially mash. In a separate bowl combine coleslaw mix, green onions, cilantro, lime juice, and 2 tsp oil. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Place bean mixture in tortillas and place tacos on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until tortillas are crispy (15 min almost burned my tacos, so I say go for 8 minutes and then leave in longer if need be). Remove from sheet and stuff with feta and coleslaw mixture. Serve immediately. Top with hot sauce or sour cream.
