Black Bean Bonanza

Tonight I was all jazzed about making the skinnytaste lady's southwestern black bean salad but my avocados weren't ready yet, so instead I made the Pioneer Woman's Black Bean Burgers. Which, BTW take like 10 minutes or less to put together slash cook. Mine didn't come out super pretty (because I am not a perfectionist) BUT. It's what I did next that made them AMAZING. 

See? Not that pretty. 

 

But then I was thinking about how I told Jeremy earlier that I would attempt some tortilla making this weekend and then I was thinking, these bean burgers only took like fourteen minutes to make and I have all of this masa and I could totally just WHIP UP some tortillas....

 

Hey, any excuse to use the tortilla press, amirite?

 

Additionally, my house is STILL SMOKY like over an hour later. Oops. But omg, LOOK AT THESE BAD BOYS. Know what is delicious? FRESH TORTILLAS. 

I then decided to eat my bean burger on a tortilla with a piece of cheese and hot sauce. I almost died. Omg. All in all, an excellent dinner. 

Only one kid tried the tortillas (he said they were too plain.) and the kid who claimed he wanted a bean burger also decided that he in fact would rather eat a hotdog. He's the one I made eat the quesadilla. Whatevs. Mmmmmmmmmm MORE TORTILLAS.
