Ingredients

  • 4 to 6 corn or flour tortillas, lightly charred or warmed
  • 1 cup cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 limes, halved (for juice and serving)
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 cups shredded green cabbage
  • ½ avocado, peeled, pitted, and thinly sliced
  • ½ ripe mango, peeled and diced into small cubes
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled feta or cotija cheese
  • 1 small serrano pepper, thinly sliced (optional)
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • ⅓ cup mayonnaise (regular or vegan)
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine black beans with 1 tablespoon lime juice, chili powder, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir to coat and set aside.
  2. Mix mayonnaise and sriracha in a separate bowl until smooth to make the spicy mayo.
  3. Toss shredded cabbage with about 1 teaspoon lime juice and a pinch of salt to soften and brighten it.
  4. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly charred and pliable.
  5. To assemble tacos, layer cabbage, black beans, avocado slices, and diced mango in each tortilla.
  6. Top with cilantro, crumbled cheese, and a drizzle of spicy mayo. Add serrano slices for extra heat if desired.
  7. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • Substitute mango with pineapple, peach, or strawberries.
  • For vegan tacos, use vegan mayo and omit or replace cheese.
  • Add radishes, shredded carrots, or grilled corn for more texture.
  • Use hummus or guacamole as an indulgent base layer.
  • Store components separately and assemble fresh for best results.
