2 Bean Tostadas



This is a delicious and very filling vegetarian meal!

2 Bean Tostadas

1 Tablespoon olive oil
8 corn tortillas
1 (16oz.) can refried beans
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 (15oz.) can black beans
3/4 cup fresh, frozen, or canned corn
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 whole jalapeno, seeded and chopped (optional)
1 roma tomato, chopped
1/2 cup green onion, chopped
1 avocado, sliced into small pieces
cilantro for garnish

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Add about 1 tablespoon oil to a large skillet on medium high heat. Spread the refried beans and half of the cheddar cheese on 4 tortillas in equal amounts. Place another tortilla on top. Fry each tortilla sandwich in the hot oil for about 2 to 4 minutes on each side, until nice and golden brown, and then place on a baking sheet.
Top tortillas with the black beans, remaining cheese, corn, red onion, and jalapeno (if desired).
Place in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes.
After they come out of the oven top each tostado with the tomato, green onion, avocado, and cilantro. Enjoy!
