Black Bean and Chorizo Tacos

Lent is over and we're not vegetarians anymore! We will definitely continue to eat meatless meals several times a week, especially after discovering so many new and awesome recipes.

We went out for burgers on Monday night at one of our favorite places in the neighborhood (DMK, check it out!). But Wednesday night we were back to cooking at home. I'm not sure there is a faster dinner than tacos. These were especially easy and delicious! I had part of a can of black beans in the fridge and they were a great addition to the chorizo. Yum!

Black Bean and Chorizo Tacos
6 oz chorizo
1/2 c black beans, drained
6 small flour tortillas
1 c shredded monterey jack cheese
1/2 avocado
sour cream
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 c cilantro, chopped

Remove chorizo from casing and cook in a 12 inch skillet over medium heat, about 7 minutes. Add the black beans and warm through. Warm the tortillas (I just use the microwave). Scoop a portion of the black bean and chorizo mixture onto each tortilla, then top with cheese, avocado, sour cream, green onions, and cilantro.
