Ingredients

  • 8 whole grain tortillas
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 lb. raw medium shrimp (deveined and tails removed)
  • 1 ½ Tbsp. low sodium taco seasoning
  • 14.5 oz. canned black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 cup guacamole

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray both sides of each tortilla with cooking spray. Place them in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
  • Bake the tortillas for 4–6 minutes, flipping halfway through. They’re done when crisp and lightly golden. Bake in batches if needed. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
  • While the tortillas bake, add the shrimp and taco seasoning to a large bowl. Toss until the shrimp are evenly coated.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until pink and fully cooked. Transfer to a clean plate.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the drained and rinsed black beans to the same skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warm.
  • Spread 2 Tbsp. guacamole on each crispy tortilla. Top with black beans and cooked shrimp. Chop the shrimp into smaller pieces if you prefer. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Notes

  • No guacamole? Mash an avocado with a little salt and pepper instead. 
  • Prefer soft tortillas? Warm the tortillas instead of baking them for an easy taco option.
