Grilled Avo + Goat Cheese Tacos

I think I discovered my favorite taco recipe to date...grilled avocado, black beans and goat cheese, in one word: YUM!  Granted this is not the prettiest picture, but believe me, they are amazing!

I think it's the drizzle of agave syrup + lime juice on top that really seals the deal.  They're the perfect blend of savory and sweet.

{and her pictures do it much more justice!}

1/2 cup black beans, with liquids

1 avocado

1 teaspoon olive oil

juice and zest from 1/2 lime

2 teaspoons agave syrup

1/4 cup goat cheese

4 corn or flour tortillas

Preheat Grill.

Add 1/2 cup of black beans and liquids to a pan.  Heat over medium low and let cook until liquids have cooked out, anywhere from 5-10 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and mash beans so they have more of a paste consistency.

Take avocado and slice in half. Brush with the one teaspoon of olive oil and place cut side down on grill. Let cook until lightly charred. Remove and carefully slice avocado out of skin.

To assemble tacos, place 1/4 of the black beans in the center of the tortilla, layer avocado and goat cheese on top. Finally, whisk together juice and zest from half a lime along with agave. Lightly drizzle over taco filling.

These pair amazingly well with a fresh squeezed margarita...just sayin'!

I love that these tacos use goat cheese as opposed to the traditional Mexican cheeses...and the agave-lime mixture is seriously heavenly.  Make these now...you won't regret it!

Hope you enjoy!  Bon Appetit!
