Ground Beef, Black Bean, and Cheddar Cheese Taquitos


Ground Beef, Black Bean, and Cheddar Cheese Taquitos:

1 lb of lean ground beef
diced onion
1 tsp coriander
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp onion powder
Dash of red pepper flakes
Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
1 15 oz can of black beans, drained and rinsed

Saute the ground beef and break the meat into crumbles. Add the onion as well as the seasonings then cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the drained and rinsed can of black beans to the beef mixture then stir until well combined. Set aside.

Other Ingredients:
Corn tortillas
Cheese, shredded
Cooking spray

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Wrap 10 corn tortillas in damp paper towels for 1-2 minutes in the microwave to soften. Place a bit cheese in the center of the tortilla then top with a bit of ground beef mixture and roll. Place, seam side down, on a baking sheet that's been coated with cooking spray. Finish rolling the rest of the taquitos, then spray each of them with cooking spray.

Place in the oven and bake for 5-6 minutes then turn over and cook for an additional 5-6 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.

Dips:
Guacamole
Salsa
Sour Cream
Serve the taquitos immediately. Enjoy.
