Season the beans with a sprinkle of basil and garlic sea salt, then stir to combine. Microwave for 2 minutes, until warmed through.
Using a potato masher, mash the warm beans to your preferred consistency — you can leave some whole for texture or mash them smooth. Return to the microwave for another 1 minute to ensure they're hot.
While the beans are cooking, use a paper towel to wipe any excess oil or browned bits from the sauté pan. Lightly spray the pan with cooking oil.
Set the pan over high heat and toast the 4 corn tortillas for anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they're golden and crisp.
