Prepping for Hurricane Sandy with sauteed beet greens and fresh tortillas

As hurricane super storm Sandy was headed for NYC – Stephan and I had a great desire for some fresh tortillas.  I fell in love with fresh corn tortillas during our trip to Tulum, Mexico this past May – and we kept meaning to go to a tortilla factory/restaurant in Corona, Queens.  So before the winds started picking up we headed out on the LIE to Corona to Tortilleria Nixtamal.  We bought a pound of fresh tortillas for $2.50 – score and amazing guacamole.  Then at home Stephan whipped up in no time at all refried black beans, sauteed veggies, and sauteed beet greens to make into soft tacos.  It was all very yummy – and a great last meal before Sandy hit us hard…

From the box – just the beet greens
