Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• ½ onion, chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• cooking spray
• 2 (8 inch) flour tortillas
• ¼ cup shredded lettuce
• ½ cup guacamole
• 1 (12 ounce) can pinto beans, drained
• 1 cup roasted tomato salsa
• 2 tablespoons corn

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray both sides of the tortillas with cooking spray; place on a baking sheet.

Step 2

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in beans, paprika, and cumin. Add water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until beans are soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain beans and transfer to a bowl. Set aside a handful for garnish. Mash remaining beans.

Step 3

In the meantime, bake tortillas in the preheated oven until golden and crispy, about 5 minutes per side.

Step 4

Spread mashed beans over the tortillas. Smooth salsa on top. Add a large scoop of guacamole. Garnish with reserved beans, lettuce, and corn.
