BLACK BEAN AND CORN VEGETARIAN SUMMER TACOS



Black Bean and Corn Vegetarian Summer Tacos image

These vegetarian tacos are perfect for a hot summer day. Served cold, and a snap to put together, even the kids can do it! Always a hit at summer parties, and guilt free too. I came up with this recipe several years ago, because I wanted something tasty, quick, and nutritious, that wouldn't heat the house up. It's also great if you have limited access to a kitchen (think college dorms). Just a sharp knife and a spoon is needed to make this fresh summer recipe.

SPICED LENTIL TACOS (VEGETARIAN)



Spiced Lentil Tacos (Vegetarian) image

This is a great recipe for those who want a vegetarian meal without fake "meat". This delicious and simple recipe is from Chef Jennifer Iserloh of New York City (aka "Skinny Chef") and was printed in this month's Self Magazine (February 2009). Following the recipe results in an al dente lentil with a little chew to mimic the texture of ground beef. If you want a softer lentil, you can cook them about 15 minutes longer (in step 1) with added broth until soft.

Time 30m

Yield 12-18 tacos, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 (20 ounce) bag Simply Potatoes Diced Potatoes with Onion
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 (1 1/2 ounce) packet taco seasoning or 2 -3 teaspoons ground cumin
garlic salt, to taste
1 -2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
12 -18 corn tortillas (I like white)
1 (16 ounce) fat free refried black beans, heated (optional)
3 tomatoes, chopped
1 bunch green onion, sliced
1/4 head cabbage or 1/4 head lettuce, sliced thinly
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
lemon wedge, to serve (especially good squeezed over cabbage and cilantro)
cheese, of choice (we had a choice of shredded colby or jack, crumbled feta and crumbled goat cheese)
sour cream, to serve
salsa, to serve
hot sauce, to serve (We love Tapatio)

Steps:

  • Spray oil a large skillet and heat over medium heat.
  • Add bag of potatoes and bell pepper and toss with seasonings.
  • Put lid on and cook for about 15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until heated through.
  • Remove lid, sprinkle with lemon juice and pan-fry for a few more minutes.
  • In the meantime, chop up toppings and lay out on a platter and bowls on the table.
  • Heat Tortillas in desired method. We heat them over the gas stove flame until they get some brown spots. You could also fry them, if desired. Lay in a tortilla warmer or plate and place on table.
  • Place prepared potatoes in a bowl alongside other choices and everyone can build their own tacos. Enjoy!
  • We had some without beans and some with beans smeared on the tortilla and then the potatoes and other toppings over them. Yummy both ways.

Provided by Kozmic Blues

Categories     Onions

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 red peppers or 1 green pepper, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, de-seeded, minced (or to taste-can substitute hot sauce or a dash of cayenne for the heat)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 (19 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
3 -5 tablespoons of your favorite chunky salsa
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder (I like the color this gives the beans)
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander (your choice)
8 taco shells
shredded cheddar cheese
shredded iceberg lettuce
salsa
hot sauce
fresh cilantro, chopped
tomatoes
black olives
sour cream

Steps:

  • Cook the onion, celery, red or green pepper, jalapeno, and garlic until softened.
  • Add garbanzo beans, spices, and a couple tsp of salsa.
  • Stir until heated through.
  • I like to fit the taco shells in a baking pan, spoon in filling evenly into the shells and bake in a 300°F oven for 5 minutes or so.
  • It helps the shells from falling apart when you take the first bite.
  • Remove from oven and top with your favorite toppings.

VEGETARIAN BLACK BEAN/HAMBURGER TACOS



Vegetarian Black Bean/Hamburger Tacos image

This recipe uses Mexican flavored vegetarian Hamburger and it is very good. You may cook your own black beans but to simplify the recipe I used a 16oz can of black beans. Be inventive and add your own choice of vegetables. Your shells should be heated but watch they burn very quickly. I like to put everything on the table and let folks build their own so the shells stay crisp and the ingredients hot. If you are making Tostados add more black beans , burger etc to the shell because 1 Tostado is a whole meal. This recipe makes 6 Tacos or 4 Tostados

yellow hot chili pepper (we like yellow jalapenos)
green onion, thinly sliced
red onion, diced small
cucumber, diced small
avocado, diced small
fresh cilantro
fresh basil
of fresh mint
plain yogurt, drained
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb ground chicken or 1 lb ground turkey
1 garlic clove, peeled and finely minced (I used 1/2 teaspoon dried minced garlic because my fresh garlic had gone bad)
salt or pepper
1 -2 tablespoon pomegranate molasses
1 -2 teaspoon sumac, to taste
1/2 lime, juice of

Steps:

  • Prep the garnishes and arrange on a serving platter. Cover until ready to use and set aside or refrigerate.
  • In a large skillet heat up olive oil on medium heat. Brown the ground beef until half way cooked then add the garlic. Cook until the meat is no longer pink; approximately 5 minutes.
  • Remove skillet from stove and season meat with salt and pepper, to taste. Now stir in about 1 tablespoon of pomegranate molasses and 1 teaspoon of sumac. Taste test. Add more of either-to your preference.
  • Serve the meat warm with the corn tortillas and platter of garnishes. We served simple dark red kidney beans on the side which were lightly seasoned with cumin powder, salt and pepper. I also slightly mashed the beans, too.
