Why It Works
  • The tortillas are heated in a skillet over medium heat until they are golden brown and slightly crispy. This gives the tacos a nice crunch and helps to hold the filling in place.
  • The bell peppers and corn are cooked in a large skillet over medium heat until they are softened. This brings out their natural sweetness and makes them easier to digest.
  • The black beans are rinsed and drained before they are added to the skillet. This helps to remove any excess starch and makes the beans more flavorful.
  • The chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper are added to the skillet along with the black beans and corn. These spices give the tacos a flavorful kick and help to bring out the natural flavors of the other ingredients.
  • The tacos are cooked for 5 minutes, or until the mixture is heated through. This ensures that the filling is cooked through and that the flavors have had time to meld together.
