Spicy Bean Taco Filling image

You won't miss the meat in this recipe, trust me. It's filling on its own. I make my own chips by slicing corn tortillas into wedges and frying them until crispy, which is much cheaper and tastier than buying chips at the store. You can stir a can of Campbell's fiesta nacho cheese soup into the taco filling for added flavor.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large onion
1 can(s) black beans, drained
1 can(s) pinto beans, drained
5 clove(s) garlic, minced
1 large green pepper, seeded and chopped
3 - jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
1 jar(s) salsa
1 tablespoon(s) chili powder
1 tablespoon(s) cayenne pepper
1 dash(es) red curry powder
1 dash(es) paprika, sweet mild
1 tablespoon(s) olive oil, extra virgin
2 cup(s) mexican blend shredded cheese

Steps:

  • Empty beans into mixing bowl and mash according to taste. I personally like my filling chunkier rather than smooth, so I don't mash too vigorously.
  • Saute onions, garlic, and peppers in olive oil in saucepan until onions are slightly browned.
  • Mix in beans, salsa, and spices. Salt may be added to taste. Cook for approximately 5 minutes.
  • Fill taco shells or serve filling in a serving bowl with shredded cheese on top and chips on the side.
