Cook Time: 10 minutes
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

A twist on the traditional favorite, this taquitos recipe is easy and satisfying for a meatless lunch or dinner. Golden brown and crispy in minutes in an air fryer, these taquitos are bursting with flavor and provide an excellent source of fiber and good source of protein. The fresh avocado adds dietary fiber and good fats to help keep you feeling fuller longer.

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe, fresh avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, and mashed
  • 1/2 cup canned black beans, rinsed
  • 1/2 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 10 (6-inch) corn tortillas
  • 1 cup rainbow cherry tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 cup red or yellow bell peppers, seeded and diced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh jalapeño, seeded and minced
  • 1 tablespoon onion, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt (4 oz)

Directions

  1. Wash hands with soap and water.
  2. Using a fork, mash the avocado and black beans together in bowl. Stir in cumin, garlic powder and salt.
  3. Spread approximately 2 Tbsp. of the mixture onto a corn tortilla, dividing equally between 10 tortillas. Roll tightly to form 10 taquitos.
  4. Place taquitos into air fryer at 400°F degrees for 5 minutes. When timer goes off, flip and put back into air fryer for 5 more minutes. Depending on air fryer you may need to decrease time to 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  5. While taquitos are cooking, combine cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, jalapeño, onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a small bowl to make fresh pico de gallo.
  6. Once taquitos are golden brown and crispy, remove from air fryer and top with fresh pico de gallo and Greek yogurt.
