Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a saucepan, bring water and rice to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, approximately 20-25 minutes.

02

Step

Place bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain, reserving the drippings in the skillet. Crumble the bacon.

03

Step

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).

04

Step

In a separate saucepan, combine black beans with 1 teaspoon of taco seasoning. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 5 minutes.

05

Step

Add the cooked rice and remaining 1 teaspoon of taco seasoning to the skillet with the reserved bacon drippings. Cook and stir until the rice is evenly coated and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.

06

Step

Lightly brush each tortilla with vegetable oil and arrange them on a baking sheet.

07

Step

Warm the tortillas in the preheated oven until pliable, approximately 3-5 minutes.

08

Step

Arrange the black bean mixture, seasoned rice, crumbled bacon, diced tomatoes, chopped green bell pepper, and shredded Cheddar cheese in separate serving bowls. Serve with warm tortillas, allowing everyone to create their own perfect bacon taco.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dollop of sour cream or guacamole.
Spice it up by using a jalapeño Cheddar cheese or adding a dash of hot sauce.
To prevent tortillas from becoming soggy, warm them just before serving.
Experiment with different toppings like shredded lettuce, onions, or a drizzle of lime juice for added zest.
