Instructions
- 1
Make the slaw: combine the shredded cabbage and cilantro in a large mixing bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, cumin, and salt until combined. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss well to coat. Set aside while you prepare the filling — the slaw will soften slightly and the flavors will come together.

In the same small bowl, toss the drained black beans with the cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt until the beans are evenly coated.
