Ingredients

SLAW:

  • 1/4 cup plain hummus
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp. oregano
  • 1/8 tsp. granulated garlic
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • salt
  • 3 cups shredded cabbage

ONIONS:

  • 1 sweet onion, sliced thin
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • salt

SQUASH:

  • 2 cups cubed butternut squash
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • salt

BEANS:

  • 1 15-oz. can black beans
  • 1 tsp. cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. oregano
  • 3/4 tsp. chili powder
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed

ASSEMBLE:

  • 6-8 corn tortillas

Instructions

  1. For the slaw: Mix hummus, cumin, chili powder, oregano, granulated garlic, lime, and salt in a small bowl. Add shredded cabbage into a large bowl and pour the sauce over top. Massage with your hands so that everything is well-combined, then place in the fridge to chill.
  2. For the caramelized onions: Add sliced onion, olive oil, and salt to a sauté pan over medium heat. Cover with a lid and allow to cook, stirring often, until the onions are light brown, about 30 minutes. If the pan looks dry, add some water. You don’t want the onions to be crispy; you want them soft and caramelized. The water will help prevent intense browning.
  3. For the butternut squash: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Add butternut, olive oil, and salt to a parchment-lined baking sheet and toss to combine. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the butternut is tender. Set aside.
  4. For the black beans: Add the beans + liquid to a medium pot. Add cumin, oregano, chili power, and garlic, and mix to combine. Cook over medium heat until the liquid reduces a bit and you’re left with thick, saucy beans, about 10 minutes.
  5. For assembly: Toast your corn tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat until slightly browned. Add slaw, beans, butternut squash, and caramelized onions to the tortilla. Enjoy as-is or with salsa and hot sauce.
