How to Make Crispy Black Bean Tacos

In a skillet, combine drained black beans with taco seasoning. Heat until warmed through, then gently mash the beans.
Blend together the sour cream, lime juice, and fresh cilantro until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning.
Take a tortilla and fill it with the hearty bean mixture. Fold each tortilla over to secure the filling.
Heat avocado oil in a skillet (or an air fryer). Fry the tacos until golden brown and crispy, about 7 minutes.
Serve hot with a drizzle of cilantro lime sauce and salsa on the side.
