Kitchen Tools:

Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and sprinkle with ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the mixture is heated through.

While the bean and mango mixture is cooking, heat another skillet over medium heat and warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side. This will make them soft and pliable for filling.

Once the bean and mango mixture is ready and the tortillas are warmed, spoon the mixture onto the tortillas. Top with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and any additional toppings of your choice, such as avocado slices or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
