Ingredients
- 6 pieces Corn tostadas (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup Black beans (cooked and drained)
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 cup Red cabbage (thinly shredded)
- 1 cup Edible flowers (such as nasturtiums, pansies, or violets)

- 3 medium Radishes (thinly sliced)
- 1 large Lime

- 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Instructions
Place the corn tostadas on a clean surface and set aside.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado until smooth and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
In another small bowl, mix the sour cream with the juice of half a lime to create lime crema. Reserve the other half of the lime for garnish.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Stir in the black beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, mashing slightly with the back of a spoon. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread a thin layer of mashed black beans on each tostada, followed by a generous layer of mashed avocado.
Top each tostada with shredded red cabbage, sliced radishes, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro leaves.
Garnish with edible flowers, arranging them artfully for a vibrant, floral presentation.
Drizzle each tostada with the lime crema and squeeze extra lime juice over the top for added brightness.
