Instructions
- Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the pinto beans to the skillet and season with cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together, mashing the beans with a fork or potato masher as you cook. Add a splash or two of water to reach your desired consistency. Cook for 5-7 minutes, then set aside.
- Warm the tostada shells in the oven according to the package instructions if desired, or skip this step if they’re ready to eat as is.
- Once the refried beans are done, spread a generous amount on each tostada shell.
- Top each tostada with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and diced red onion.
- Add slices of fresh or pickled jalapeño, diced avocado, crumbled queso fresco, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro leaves on top.
- Serve with lime wedges on the side and optional toppings like sour cream, salsa, and hot sauce.
- Enjoy immediately while the tostadas are crisp!
