Preparation
 



Spoon beans into large oven-proof platter.
On top of that place the corn, then the "cheese".


Bake at 400 till heated through.
Meanwhile heat tortillas; best done by moistening with water, wrapping in foil, placing
in oven for few minutes.


Garnish bean mixture with avocado slices and cilantro or parsley.
Spoon into tortillas.
Serve with salsa, to taste.


This is simpler than it sounds, and twice as delicious.
Even my fussy 15 year old ate it, and so ends the reign of peanut butter...
