  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 8 tacos

Ingredients

Buffalo Bean Mixture

  • 1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Taco Assembly

  • 8 small tortillas
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare Buffalo Bean Mixture: In a pan over medium heat, combine the drained and rinsed white beans, buffalo sauce, cumin, and garlic powder. Stir frequently and heat until the mixture is warmed through, ensuring the beans soak up the flavors and the sauce is evenly distributed.
  2. Warm the Tortillas: Heat the tortillas in a separate pan over low heat for a minute or two on each side until soft and pliable, or microwave them covered with a damp paper towel for about 20-30 seconds.
  3. Assemble the Tacos: Spoon the warm buffalo bean mixture onto each tortilla. Top each with slices of avocado, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and fresh cilantro to add freshness and texture.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, mix in sour cream or Greek yogurt with the buffalo sauce before combining with the beans.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Feel free to add shredded cheese or a squeeze of lime for extra flavor variations.
