Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450F.

Step 2

In a pan over medium heat, add the onion and saute until translucent. Add in the garlic, tomato paste, vegetable broth and spices. Saute until fragrant, an additional 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add in the drained and rinsed cans of black beans and vegetable broth, and stir until combined with the spices and tomato paste.

Step 4

Using a potato masher or the back of a fork, mash the beans into a thick paste. Finish with a squeeze of lime.

Step 5

Coat a sheet pan with spray oil, and lay out the tortillas. Transfer the mixture 2 tablespoons at a time onto the tortillas, and top with vegan cheese if using. Fold in half, making sure to seal the tortillas so they don't flip open in the oven.

Step 6

Place in the oven for 5 minutes, then flip and bake the other side until crispy. While the tacos bake, make the herb dressing by adding all ingredients to a blender and blitzing until combined.

Step 7

Enjoy with the dipping sauce.
