Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 tostada shells
- 2 cups refried black beans
- 2 medium avocado
- 1 lime
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 small jalapeño
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 0.5 cup vegan sour cream
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the tostada shells on a baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes until they are crispy. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In a small saucepan, warm the refried black beans over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally until heated through, then remove from heat.
Dice the avocados and place them into a bowl. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the avocado and mash with a fork until smooth. Set aside.
Quarter the cherry tomatoes and finely dice the red onion, jalapeño, and fresh cilantro. Combine them in a mixing bowl along with the corn kernels. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and mix well to make a salsa.
In another small bowl, combine the vegan sour cream and hot sauce.
To assemble the tostadas, spread a generous layer of refried beans onto each tostada shell.
Top with a spoonful of the mashed avocado, followed by the tomato-corn salsa, and drizzle with the spicy vegan sour cream.
Garnish with additional cilantro leaves if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious vegan crispy bean tostadas!
