Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high. Dice the onion, then add it and the salt and cook 2 minutes, until just beginning to soften.
- Add the black beans and 1/4 cup salsa and stir to coat with the oil and onions. Cook, stirring periodically, until heated through, about 4 minutes. Mash and set aside.
- Meanwhile, spread the tortillas in a single layer on a baking sheet, then place in the oven until crisp, about 6 minutes, flipping the tortillas once halfway through. Prepare any desired toppings.
- To serve, spoon the black beans over the crisp tortillas, then pile on the toppings. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- TO STORE: Bean tostadas are best enjoyed right after serving. However, leftover bean mixture may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days in a covered container.
- TO REHEAT: Warm the bean mixture in a skillet over medium heat until heated through. Then spread over freshly baked tortillas and top as desired. Alternatively, you may also microwave the beans, in a microwave-safe container, until steaming.
- TO FREEZE: The bean mixture may be stored in the freezer, in an airtight container, for up to 3 months. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator before warming.
- NOTE: Depending upon how quickly your oven preheats and how many garnishes are selected, you may need more than 10 minutes to fully prepare this recipe. That said, it is still a quick, healthy, and delicious meal!
