Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Sauté the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onion and garlic until translucent. Add the black beans, corn, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until heated through.
- Prepare the Tortillas: Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
