Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 ears corn (about 4 cups kernels)
1/3 cup skim milk
16 ounces canned no-salt-added black beans
6 ounces whole red pepper or 5 ounces chopped ready-cut red pepper (1 1/4 cups)
1 jalapeno
1 small clove garlic
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 whole wheat flour tortillas
1/8 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Shuck corn and scrape kernels from cobs. Coarsely chop half of the kernels in food processor; spoon into saucepan.
  • Combine milk with remaining kernels, and process to cream; stir into saucepan. Cook corn over low heat about 7 minutes, to blend well and cook through.
  • Wash and drain beans, add to corn and cook 1 minute.
  • Wash, trim and finely chop red pepper; wash, seed and mince half the jalapeno (more if desired).
  • Heat tortillas in toaster oven.
  • Mince garlic. Take the corn mixture off the heat, and add garlic, pepper, jalapeno and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper, and stir well.
