Speedy Black Bean and Avocado Tostadas

How to make it

1. 1

   First, warm your corn tortillas. You can do this in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until they are pliable and slightly browned. Alternatively, you can microwave them briefly or toast them in a toaster oven.

2. 2

   Next, prepare your black beans. Drain and rinse both cans of black beans well. Place them in a small saucepan with a splash of water, or simply microwave them, and heat through until warm.

3. 3

   While the beans are heating, slice your ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl. Mash them gently with a fork. You can leave them a little chunky for texture.

4. 4

   Now it is time to assemble your tostadas. Place a warm tortilla on your plate. Spread a generous layer of mashed avocado over the tortilla.

5. 5

   Spoon a dollop of warm black beans on top of the avocado, followed by a spoonful of fresh salsa. Finish each tostada with a squeeze of fresh lime juice right before serving. Enjoy your delicious and speedy meal.
