Ingredients
  

  • 1 can black beans, 15.5 oz drained and rinsed
  • cup your favorite salsa
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • fresh lime juice to taste, optional
  • 8-10 corn tortillas amount may vary based on size of tortillas

Instructions
 

  • Add drained & rinsed beans to a medium bowl. Add salsa, cumin, chili powder to bowl and mash with a fork or potato masher until mashed to desired consistency. Chunks are fine! Add salt and pepper & lime juice to taste
  • Warm corn tortillas in skillet or in microwave for about 30 seconds until they are very pliable. I recommend only doing 2-3 at a time so that they do not cool before you roll them. This makes rolling much easier and reduces any cracking.
  • Take a warm tortilla (careful not to burn yourself!) and spread 2 tablespoons of filling across it. Roll gently and tightly and place seam side down in air fryer. Repeat warming, filling and rolling tortillas until all the filling is gone.
  • Air fry at 390° for 10-11 minutes to desired crispiness. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  • Enjoy dipped in salsa, sour cream or guacamole!
