Equipment
- 1 Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 8 corn tortillas
- 2-3 avocados
- 15.5 oz. can black beans
- ½ cup Mexican-style cheese (or preferred cheese)
- ½ t garlic powder
- ½ t cumin
- ½ t chili powder
- 1 t salt
- ½ t black pepper
- 1 lime juiced (to be used for the taco filling and cream sauce)

- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup sour cream
Instructions
- Open the avocados and cut into cubes.
- Mix the avocados, drained black beans and spices.
- Wrap the tortillas in a wet paper towel and microwave for approximately 30 seconds. This will prevent the tortillas from cracking when you are working with them.
- Spray the air fryer with cooking spray.
- Brush a tortilla with olive oil and fill with a scoop of the bean and avocado mixture. Top this with cheese and fold the tortilla. The mini tacos can be folded like a taco or wrapped like a taquito.
- Place the tortilla in the air fryer in a single layer and continue this process until the air fryer is full. Work in batches if necessary.
- At 400 degrees, cook the mini tacos for about 5 minutes, or until they are crispy.
- Place the Cilantro Lime Garlic Sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, creamy and bright green in color.
- Serve the mini tacos with the Cilantro Lime Garlic Sauce and Salsa.
