We love tacos, I mean, who doesn’t? My husband will resort to Taco bell, if he has a craving. I talk him out of the unhealthy calories and hence, I’ve come up with creative home recipes. I’m a soft tortilla person and my husband is the exact opposite, crunchy, cheesy, hard shell tacos. So, I always have both versions of tacos, stocked up in my pantry. Pro tip; if you do end up having two types of taco eaters, such as us, it’s best to buy the pre-made taco kits. These kits have taco seasoning, sauce and both, hard and soft shell tacos.

I enjoy mixing up the protein, because, let’s face it, refried beans can get  stale and boring. I use what I have on hand or rather the freezer, but you can substitute this recipe for tofu, or any other type of vegan protein.  Also, whenever I can use my air fryer, I have a really proud “weight loss” moment.  Do you feel the same? Don’t stress, you can always use your toaster or convention  oven, if you do not have an airfryer.
