"Super Stuffed Tortillas"

(From the cookbook "Simply in Season"-my cooking Bible)

1-2 cloves of garlic
1 onion
1 green pepper.
Mince veggies and saute in oil until crisp tender.

2 cups corn (I only used 1 cup)
1 small-medium zucchini (diced)
1 1/2 T cumin
Add to pan and continue to saute until all veggies are tender but not browned.

2 cups black beans (I used a can)
1 cup veggie or chicken broth
6 T salsa
Add and cook until there is no excess moisture (the liquid should have almost all cooked off making a sort of very thick sauce for the veggies). About 10 minutes.

Add veggies to your tortilla and enjoy! Top with whatever suits you-make sure you include cheese!

**What made these stellar for us is John used corn tortillas and fried them in oil. SO good! (Ok, I know that's not so healthy for you, but SO good.) He fried them on both sides then while still in the pan folded them in half like a hard shelled taco and fried on each side a few more seconds. The tortillas are still very soft yet shaped like a taco shell.**
