Back with another variation of crispy baked tacos! This time, I used ground turkey, black beans, and tested out the Somos taco simmer sauce. The tacos are baked to crispy perfection, filled with a flavorful meat mixture, and topped with optional Cotija cheese, sour cream, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges. The combination of textures and flavors makes these tacos irresistible!

If you don’t have Somos taco simmer sauce, you can substitute with your favorite taco sauce or salsa.
For extra crispiness, lightly brush the outside of the tortillas with olive oil before baking.
Make sure to drain and rinse the black beans to remove excess sodium.
Can I use a different type of meat?
Yes, you can substitute ground turkey with ground beef, chicken, or even a plant-based meat alternative.
How do I prevent the tortillas from cracking?
Heating the tortillas briefly in the oven before filling them helps make them pliable and less likely to crack.
Can I make these tacos ahead of time?
You can prepare the filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. Assemble and bake the tacos just before serving for the best texture.
What other toppings can I use?
You can add shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, or pickled jalapeños for extra flavor.
Can I use flour tortillas instead of corn tortillas?
Yes, but note that flour tortillas may not get as crispy as corn tortillas when baked.
