Method

Main Menu

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk together crema with lime juice and a pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside as a quick crema to drizzle.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the tostadas on a baking sheet and bake 3-5 minutes, just until warm and a tad crisp (watch closely to avoid burning).

  3. 3

    In a small saucepan, warm the refried beans over medium heat until loosened and easily spreadable.

  4. 4

    To assemble each tostada: spread a layer of warm refried beans on the tostada, then drizzle or dot with crema.

  5. 5

    Top with shredded lettuce for a fresh base.

  6. 6

    Add diced tomatoes and diced white onion over the lettuce.

  7. 7

    Slice avocados and fan onto each tostada.

  8. 8

    Sprinkle crumbled queso fresco over the avocado.

  9. 9

    Garnish with chopped cilantro and a few slices of jalapeño for heat (remove seeds for milder heat).

  10. 10

    Serve with lime wedges on the side and additional crema to taste.
