Crisp slaw tacos with quick pickled onion

Bottled coleslaw is your shortcut to a bright, crunchy dinner when you have a shelf with just one item. Build these tacos with soft tortillas, store-bought slaw, and a sharp pickled onion that takes five minutes to come together.

Serves 2. 15 minutes, 15 at the stove.

About 470 calories a serving, 19 g protein, 101 g carbohydrate, 6 g fat. From USDA figures for 100% of the ingredients; amounts are the recipe's.

You need 12 oz classic coleslaw, classic, 1/4 cup vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 medium onion, 8 corn tortillas, 1 can white beans or black beans, cooked.

  1. Slice 1 medium onion thin into half-moons and toss in a bowl with 1/4 cup vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside while you assemble everything else; the onion will soften and pickle in about five minutes.
  2. Warm 8 corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about thirty seconds per side until pliable, stacking them on a plate as they come off the heat.
  3. Drain and warm 1 can of beans in a small pot or the same skillet, stirring once or twice until heated through, about three minutes.
  4. Lay out the warm tortillas and spread 2 tablespoons coleslaw down the center of each, then add a spoonful of beans and a small heap of the pickled onion with its vinegar. Roll or fold to eat.

Note Swap canned chickpeas for beans if you prefer. Leftovers keep two days in the fridge in an airtight container; rewarm the beans and tortillas separately. Serve with lime wedges and hot sauce on the side, or add fresh cilantro or crumbled queso fresco if you have them.
