Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp cannabis-infused olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 can (15 oz) drained and rinsed black beans, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for 5 minutes, mashing some beans with the back of the spoon to create a chunky texture.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, prepare the avocado crema by blending 1 whole ripe avocado, 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp lime juice, and 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro in a blender until smooth and creamy.
  4. Step 4: Warm 8 small corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until pliable.
  5. Step 5: Assemble the tacos by spooning the spiced black bean mixture evenly onto each tortilla. Top with 1/4 cup finely diced red onion and a generous dollop of avocado crema.
  6. Step 6: Serve immediately with extra lime wedges if desired.
