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 leaves (if available in your cooler) |
1 cup canned diced tomatoes, drained |
1/4 cup chopped onion |
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped |
sprigs of 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. 2. Servings: 4 3.
