For the Tuxtepecana

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Black Beans

    In a saucepan, heat the black beans over medium heat until warmed through. Mash slightly with a fork for a creamier texture.

  2. 2

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tuxtepecana

    On each tortilla, spread a layer of black beans, followed by shredded Oaxaca cheese. Fold the tortilla in half and place it in a baking dish.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the tortillas for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Top the baked Tuxtepecana with sour cream, pico de gallo, sliced avocado, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
