Ingredients

12 units corn taco shells
2 cans black beans
2 cloves garlic
1 units onion
4 ounces green chilies
1 tablespoons tomato paste
0.5 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1 cups shredded cheddar cheese
3 cups lettuce
4 units plum tomatoes

Steps:

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. If using taco shells, separate and place on baking sheet. If using tortillas, wrap in foil. Bake taco shells or tortillas about 10 minutes or until heated through. Alternatively, wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave on high 30 to 60 seconds.
Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, combine beans, garlic, onion, chilies, tomato paste and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Cover and cook over low heat 10 minutes, adding small amounts of water if necessary to prevent sticking. Uncover and if any juices are left, increase heat and cook until most of the liquid evaporates. Mash beans down to a chunky texture with a fork.
To assemble, in each taco shell or tortilla spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of filling. Top with cheese, lettuce and tomato. Roll tortilla around filling ingredients.
