Ingredients
-
½ butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch cubes
-
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
-
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
-
2 cloves garlic, chopped
-
1 (15.5 ounce) can black beans, drained
-
1 teaspoon cumin
-
1 teaspoon chili powder
-
1 pinch salt
-
1 yellow onion, chopped
-
1 red bell pepper, chopped
-
8 (6 inch) flour tortillas
-
½ cup chopped green onions
-
½ cup chopped cilantro
-
1 lime, sliced
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
-
Combine cubed squash, 1 tablespoon oil, red pepper flakes, and garlic in a large bowl; mix to coat. Spread out on a baking sheet.
-
Roast in the preheated oven until squash is tender, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven.
-
Combine black beans, cumin, chili powder, and salt in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.
-
Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and red bell pepper; cook and stir until tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
-
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Place 2 tortillas in the skillet and cook until heated through, about 1 minute per side. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
-
Top tortillas with baked squash, black beans, and onion-red pepper mixture. Garnish with green onions, cilantro, and lime.
Cook's Note:
Prepare 1 box Mexican or Spanish rice according to directions on the box, and add to the onion and red bell pepper mixture in step 5 if desired. Alternatively, flavor fresh rice with lime and cilantro and use that to top tacos instead.
