Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Place the corn tortillas in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with olive oil.
-
Bake the tortillas for about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are crisp and lightly golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning. Once done, remove from the oven and set aside.
-
In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the drained black beans, corn kernels, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for 5-7 minutes until heated through and the flavors meld together. Mash some of the black beans slightly for a thicker consistency if desired.
-
To assemble the tostadas, spoon a generous amount of the black bean and corn mixture onto each baked tortilla.
-
Top the tostadas with diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, crumbled queso fresco, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
-
Serve the Black Bean and Corn Tostadas immediately while warm and enjoy the delicious flavors and textures!
