Best. Tacos. Ever.

I don’t know where these have been all my life.

Seriously-I don’t even know how to begin to describe how good these were.

And the crazy thing? I threw them together in around 15 minutes. No plan. No recipe. No measuring. Just, BAM.

The most delicious tacos I’ve ever made.

I don’t know if I’ll ever be able replicate them. This may have been a once in a lifetime experience. I was just at the right place at the right time, and BAM.

Tacos.

I wish you could eat them through your computer screen.

This is the kind of recipe (if you can even call it that) that I wish I’d known was going to be a hit before I started making it because I would have taken better pictures of the process.

I just came home from a crazy busy day at work and started pulling ingredients out of the pantry. Since I don’t really know how this happened, I’m going to try my best to give you the recipe. It was really simple but required a lot of guesswork and spilling of bean juice (bean juice?) all over the counter. The latter is necessary.
