INGREDIENTS

Almond Butter Refried Beans:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
  • ¼ teaspoon  salt
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 tablespoons JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter
  • 1/3 cup water (plus more as needed)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice, to taste

Tacos:

  • 6 flour tortillas
  • 6 eggs, scrambled
  • ¾ cup pico de gallo
  • 1 cup finely shredded red cabbage
  • 1/3 cup queso fresco
  • Sliced jalapenos (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  1. To make the refried beans, heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onions and salt until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, spices, beans, almond butter and water. Cover and cook for 5 minutes, then reduce heat to low. Use a potato masher or the back of a fork to mash the beans. Continue to cook the beans, uncovered, stirring often, for 3 more minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Taste, and add more salt and lime juice if necessary.
  2. To make the tacos, spread about 3 tablespoons of the beans onto each tortilla. Top with eggs, pico de gallo, shredded cabbage, queso fresco, and jalapenos, as desired.
  3. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Go bananas with this Peanut Butter Apple Banana Bread sure to delight your palate. Banana bread is one of my favorite baked goods. When I was putting this recipe together I thought, “How could I justify this recipe?”. The answer was simple, I’ve added JUSTIN’S® Honey Peanut Butter (that’s me, Justin), honey apples, apple sauce, bananas, and my not-so-secret ingredient, love, for a truly exquisite loaf of banana bread.
