Ingredients

Tostada Base

4 pieces corn tortillas baked or fried until crispy

Main Ingredients

1 cup black beans cooked and drained
2 ripe avocados pitted and sliced
1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Optional Toppings

1/4 cup queso fresco crumbled
1 jalapeño sliced
4 tablespoons sour cream

Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to crisp the corn tortillas, or alternatively, heat a skillet with oil to fry them until golden brown.
2 Place the crispy tortillas on a baking sheet if using the oven, or on a paper towel-lined plate if fried.
3 In a medium bowl, combine the cooked black beans, chopped red onion, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
4 In another bowl, gently toss the avocado slices with lime juice to prevent browning.
5 Assemble the tostadas by spreading a layer of the black bean mixture on each tortilla.
6 Top with avocado slices, halved cherry tomatoes, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
7 Add optional toppings like crumbled queso fresco, sliced jalapeños, and a dollop of sour cream if desired.
8 Serve immediately while the tostadas are still crisp and enjoy the zesty flavors.
