Black Bean and Mushroom Taquitos (vegan, gluten free)

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425F while you prepare the filling.

Step 2

In a pan over medium high heat, sauté onions until fragrant and golden brown. Next add garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Add spices and chiles and use a spatula to keep mixture moving so as not to burn.

Step 3

Next add black beans and mushrooms and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and then use the back of a wooden spoon or a potato masher to slightly smash the bean mixture. It will help to make filling the tortillas easier later on.

Step 4

When the mixture is ready, prepare your tortillas by wrapping in a damp kitchen cloth or paper towel and microwaving for roughly 2 minutes until soft. This will allow you to roll the tortillas without them breaking.

Step 5

Fill each tortilla with 1-2 spoonfuls of the bean mixture, add a piece of vegan cheese if desired, and roll up. Place seam side down in a baking dish and repeat using the remaining bean mixture.

Step 6

Bake tortillas for 10-15 minutes until tortillas are crisp and golden brown. Serve with cashew sour cream, fresh cilantro, salsa, guacamole, fresh lime and any other ingredients of choice.
