"Beef" & Bean Tacos

"Beef" & Bean Tacos



Prep Time: 20 Min

Cook Time: 20 - 25 Min

 

1. Empty the contents of the refried beans into a small pot set to medium low. Cover and simmer until needed.

 

1. Begin heating a non-stick skillet set to medium. Once heated, add the Beyond Beef and start to break it up in the pan. Heat for 4 – 5 minutes, stirring and continuing to break up the “beef” as it cooks and sears. Make a well in the center of the pan and drop in the garlic. Once you smell it (about 1 minute) stir it in and continue to cook for another 3 minutes.

 

1. Remove the beef from the pan leaving behind the juices and drop in the onion and bell pepper. Season with sea salt & pepper and cook for 5 – 7 minutes until they have cooked down and are no longer crunchy.  Add in the beef along with the chili powder, cumin, garlic & onion powders, pepper flakes, and oregano. Continue to stir and cook for another couple minutes until the spices have cooked out.
