    Healthy Baked Vegetarian Tacos - Kid friendly and just 15 minutes of prep before going into the oven to bake. | www.feastingathome.com

    These fast, kid-friendly EASY Baked Vegetarian Tacos are for those of you who have hungry mouths to feed and need to get something on the table ASAP. Not only are they simple and quick to put together, they are really adaptable. Keep them vegetarian and affordable by using organic refried beans as the protein, or if so inclined, add left-over rotisserie chicken, or browned, seasoned ground meat. But I will say that even my meat-loving husband loves these, prefers them even, with the refried beans. And it makes it so easy! For more adult palates, drizzle hot sauce over the beans before baking and experiment with different cheeses. For example, sometimes make these with crumbled goat cheese, instead of jack or queso fresco. Play around, have fun with it. Make 2 or 12 … up to you!

    If possible choose seasoned refried beans. This organic one is called “Salsa Style” and has a little flavor.

    Spoon the beans in the taco shells and place on a parchment-lined baking dish. You can also set them on their side on a lined or greased sheet pan.

    Add your choice of cheese and simply place in a hot oven for 15 minutes.

    While they are warming, dice the tomatoes and avocado and chop the cilantro and scallions.

    Then top the warm baked tacos with the fresh ingredients. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and optional hot sauce or simply a squeeze of lime.

      Yes!! Dinner is done! We threw in some seasoned ground turkey breast (apparently my kids don’t believe in “Meastless Monday”), and added a few rings of TJ’s Hot and Sweet Jalapeño Slices before hitting the oven, too. This is definitely a keeper at our house! Thank you for a fantastic revamped taco recipe!!
