Instructions

  • Place the black beans and broth in a medium pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for 5 minutes or until liquid reduces by about 1/2. Using a fork or a potato masher, roughly mash the beans. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until liquid reduces.
  • While the beans cook, prepare the jicama salsa and avocado mash. Place all of the ingredients for the jicama salsa into a large mixing bowl and toss thoroughly to combine. Set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, place in all of the ingredients for the avocado mash and mash until the mixture is smooth with some chunks.
  • When the beans are ready, build your tacos! Set out one taco and add a spoonful of beans. Top with jicama salsa and then avocado mash. Repeat to build 12 tacos.
