Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Carrots

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the grated carrots and sauté for about 5 minutes until tender.

  2. 2

    Season the Carrots

    Stir in the chipotle powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate pan, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    To assemble, place a generous amount of the sautéed carrots on each tortilla, followed by black beans, crumbled cotija queso, and pickled red onion.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
