Black Bean Breakfast

This Black Bean Breakfast Recipe is a great vegetarian breakfast that’s creamy, delicious, and super easy to make! Pretty much every time that I eat this dish, I serve it with warm corn tortillas. If you pile everything on a tortilla it makes a delicious black bean breakfast taco which is basically the best way to eat breakfast.

Ingredients

  • ½ tbsp - olive oil
  • 1 can - black beans
  • ½ tsp - cumin
  • ½ tsp - paprika
  • ¼ cup - onion*
  • 2 cloves - garlic*
  • For serving:
  • ¼ cup - broth

Instructions

  1. In a medium skillet, heat your oil over medium heat. Once hot, add in the onion and garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
  2. Add in the black beans, ¼ cup of broth, and spices. Cook until the black beans are heated through, stirring frequently. Using the back of a wooden spoon, lightly mash about ¼ of the black beans. You *can* skip this step but it creates a nice and creamy texture that’s very lovely! If black beans seem quite dry, add in a couple more tablespoons of the broth and heat through.
  3. Remove black beans from heat and divide among 2 plates. Top with fried eggs and other desired toppings! Serve with warm tortillas for a delicious breakfast taco.
  4. *If wanting to make this quickly with little to no chopping, you can easily sub the onion and garlic for ½-1 teaspoon each of onion and garlic powder. I’ve tried this a few times and it’s still delicious.
  5. I recommend that this dish serves 2 but it would also make a great side dish for 4.
