Instructions for Loaded Vegetarian Guacamole Tacos
  1. Start by slicing ripe avocados in half, removing the pit, and scooping the flesh into a mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocados to your desired creaminess.
  2. Add lime juice, salt, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, and any additional ingredients you like. Mix thoroughly and taste to adjust seasoning.
  3. Combine rinsed and drained black beans with diced red onion, chopped poblano pepper, and minced jalapeño in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium-low for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through.
  4. Warm tortillas in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds. On each tortilla, lay down shredded lettuce, spoon warm black bean mixture onto one half, and add guacamole onto the other half.
  5. Drizzle hot sauce over the black beans and guacamole, and toss on additional toppings like cilantro or red bell pepper. Serve immediately.
