1 small sweet onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
2/3 cup salsa

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
6 oz. crumbled Feta cheese
8 - 10 flour tortillas
Sour cream and salsa
Sliced jalapeno peppers.

Heat oil in a skillet and saute onion and garlic. Add cumin, salsa and black beans, cook for several minutes and remove from heat. Stir in cilantro, lime juice and Feta cheese.
