Before You Start
Drain and rinse the black beans, shred the cabbage, rinse the spinach, slice the avocado, and set a skillet on the stove.
How To Make It
- Warm the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add the cabbage, and cook, stirring now and then, 4 to 5 minutes, until it wilts and softens.
- Add the spinach and cook, 2 to 3 minutes, until it wilts down, then move the vegetables to a bowl.
- Warm the black beans in the same skillet with the cumin, stirring now and then, 4 to 5 minutes, until steaming and fragrant.
- Warm the tortillas in a dry pan, about 20 seconds a side, until soft and pliable so they fold without cracking.
- Fill each tortilla with the cabbage, spinach, avocado, and black beans.
- Top with the salsa, fold, and serve.
Fix It: If the tortillas tear when you fold them, they are too cold, so ten more seconds in the hot pan makes them bend instead of break.
Microwave
- Add the ingredients you would cook together to a microwave safe bowl along with their liquid.
- Cover loosely and microwave in one minute bursts, stirring between each, until hot through.
- Let it stand for a minute, then finish and plate the dish as written in the steps above.
