Ingredients

Method

  1. Make your refried beans according to the recipe instructions.
    Refried pinto beans
  2. Layer the refried beans over one half of your mini tortilla, then sprinkle over some grated cheese
    6 mini flour or corn tortilla wraps, 100 g grated cheddar cheese
  3. Fold the tortilla over, leaving a small gap at the top (this helps the cheese and beans go extra crispy and delicious!
  4. Heat your oil in a large pan, and fry the tacos for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and perfectly crispy.
    2 tablespoon olive oil
  5. Serve with the avocado lime crema.

Notes

You could also use a storebought can of refried beans if you don't have time - or use black beans in place of the pinto beans!
Press down slightly on the tacos while frying to ensure the cheesy tops melt and turn crispy. Feel free to add more vegetables, jalapenos, or another protein to the tacos if you want.
