A meal on an edible plate – so no dish to wash! Spiced, protein-rich black beans, stacked with veggies, need only simple assembly. One tostada apiece makes a light meal; double the recipe for a hearty meal.
Ingredients:
1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon chili powder
4 corn tostadas
1 cup washed and torn romaine lettuce leaf (if available in your cooler)
1 cup canned diced tomato, drained
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 sprig cilantro, if available
Directions:
1. Mash beans in a medium bowl, using a potato masher or the back of a spoon. Add chili powder and blend. Spread bean mixture evenly over tostadas; layer with lettuce, tomato, onion and jalapeño. Garnish with cilantro, if desired. Serve immediately.
