Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Corn tortillas
- Olive oil spray
- 1 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Black beans, canned
- 1 tablespoon Taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 cup Chopped lettuce
- 1 cup Chopped tomatoes
- 1 cup Diced avocado
- 1 piece Lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
To prepare the dairy-free nacho cheese seasoning, mix the nutritional yeast, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a small bowl.
Arrange the corn tortillas on a baking sheet in a single layer. Lightly spray both sides with olive oil spray.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the tortillas.
Bake the seasoned tortillas in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until they become crispy and lightly toasted. Remove them from the oven and fold them gently into taco shell shapes while warm. Allow them to cool and set.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, add the black beans, taco seasoning, and water. Cook over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through and well-coated with the seasoning.
Once the taco shells are cool and set, assemble the tacos by filling each shell with a couple of tablespoons of the seasoned black beans.
Top with chopped lettuce, tomatoes, diced avocado, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Dairy-Free Doritos Locos Tacos!
