Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Corn tortillas
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 can (15 oz) Black beans, no salt added
- 2 pieces Avocado
- 1 piece Lime
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 piece Red onion
- 0.5 cup Cilantro
- 1 cup Fresh corn kernels
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Brush each corn tortilla with a light layer of olive oil on both sides and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crisp and golden brown. Set aside to cool.
Rinse and drain the black beans and mash them slightly in a bowl with a fork. Mix in ground cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, and black pepper.
Prepare the avocado by scooping out the flesh into a separate bowl. Mash it with a fork and add the juice of the lime, mixing well to combine for a simple guacamole.
Dice the cherry tomatoes and red onion. Add them to a small bowl with the corn kernels and chopped cilantro. Mix and add white vinegar, stirring to combine for the relish.
Once the tortillas are cooled, spread a layer of mashed black beans onto each tostada.
Add a dollop of the prepared guacamole on top of the beans.
Sprinkle the tomato and corn relish over each tostada, distributing evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy the crunchy, flavorful, and low-sodium tostadas!
