Instructions
Rinse the dried black beans thoroughly and discard any debris.

Stir the ingredients together, cover the crock pot with its lid, and cook on high for 6 hours or until the black beans are tender and the liquid has thickened slightly.
Once cooked, taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or spices if needed.
Warm the tortillas in a microwave or skillet until pliable.
