Ingredients
  

1 ripe pineapple, peeled, cored, and sliced into rings

1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 small red onion, diced

1 ripe avocado, diced

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

8 small corn or flour tortillas

Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, warm it on the stovetop over medium heat instead.

    Grill the Pineapple: Lightly brush both sides of the pineapple rings with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Place the rings directly onto the grill and cook them for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side, until you achieve appealing grill marks and a caramelized surface. Once cooked, remove the rings from the grill and let them cool slightly before chopping them into bite-sized pieces.

      Sauté the Vegetables: In a medium skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Stir in the rinsed black beans, lime juice, chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook the mixture for an additional 3-4 minutes until everything is warmed through.

        Warm the Tortillas: For corn tortillas, place them on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or warm them in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are pliable and soft.

          Assemble the Tacos: Take each tortilla and layer in a generous spoonful of the sautéed black bean mixture. Follow this with an equal amount of the chopped grilled pineapple. Finish off by adding diced avocado and garnishing with fresh cilantro.

            Serve: Arrange your delicious tacos on a platter and present them with lime wedges on the side, perfect for squeezing fresh lime juice over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
