Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the corn tortillas on a baking sheet in a single layer. Lightly spray both sides of each tortilla with cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, flip each tortilla, and bake for another 5 minutes until they are golden and crispy.
While the tortillas are baking, drain and rinse the black beans. Transfer them to a bowl and mash them slightly with a fork or potato masher.
In a separate small bowl, mix the low-fat Greek yogurt with lime juice, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Prepare the toppings: dice the avocado, halve the cherry tomatoes, finely chop the red onion and jalapeño, and chop the fresh cilantro.
Once the tortillas are ready, spread a layer of mashed black beans over each tostada.
Top with a dollop of the yogurt mixture, followed by avocado, cherry tomatoes, chopped red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and shredded lettuce.
Serve immediately while the tostadas are still crispy.
