Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Corn tortillas
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 15 ounces Canned refried beans
- 2 pieces Ripe avocado
- 1 piece Lime
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 piece Red onion
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 1 cup Green cabbage
- 1 piece Jalapeño
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Brush both sides of the corn tortillas lightly with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
In a small saucepan, heat the canned refried beans over medium heat, stirring occasionally until warm.
While the beans are warming, pit and scoop out the avocados into a bowl. Mash them with a fork.
Juice the lime and add it to the avocado along with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Mix well to make the guacamole.
Dice the cherry tomatoes, finely chop the red onion, and shred the cabbage and cilantro. For a spicy kick, slice the jalapeño thinly.
To assemble the tostadas, spread a layer of warm refried beans on each crispy tortilla.
Add a dollop of guacamole on top of the beans.
Garnish with cherry tomatoes, red onion, cabbage, cilantro, and jalapeño slices.
Serve the tostadas immediately and enjoy!
