Instructions

Making the Tostadas
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
  2. Place the 6 corn tortillas on the lined baking sheet, spray them with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt. Bake the tortillas for 10 minutes or until they start to brown around the edges and are crisp.
  3. In a small saucepan over medium heat add all of the ingredients for the chipotle black beans. When everything is heated through, about 2-3 minutes, use a potato masher to mash them until they resemble refried beans.
  4. In a large skillet sprayed generously with cooking spray, add the sliced peppers, onions, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Saute the vegetables over medium high heat for about 5 minutes or until they have softened.
  5. In a blender or using a whisk, blend together all of the ingredients for the chipotle yogurt sauce until smooth.
Assembling the Tostadas
  1. Divide the chipotle black beans evenly over the baked corn tortillas and spread them into an even layer. Top the beans with some of the shredded cheddar cheese if desired.
  2. Top with the onions and peppers. Finish the tostadas off with a drizzle of the chipotle yogurt sauce and cilantro if desired.
