Ingredients

  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 can pinto beans rinsed & drained
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon coriander
  • 1 lime juice divided
  • ½ cup goat cheese or queso fresco/queso blanco

For Nectarine Salsa

  • 3 nectarines pitted & diced
  • 2 small plum tomatoes diced
  • ½ a white onion minced
  • 4 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • 2 teaspoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

For Tostadas

  • Prehead oven to 350°F.
  • On a large baking pan, spread out corn tortillas so that they are not overlapping. Brush lightly with olive oil.
  • Bake until lightly golden and edges begin to get wavy, 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. (They will crisp as they cool.)
  • Meanwhile, place rinsed pinto beans in a medium bowl. Add chili powder, cumin, coriander, and the juice from half a lime. Mash with a fork until desired consistency is reached. Set aside.

For Nectarine Salsa

  • In another bowl, combine diced nectarine, tomatoes, white onion, cilantro, honey, sea salt and juice from the remaining half of a lime. Combine well.

Assembly

  • Heat the pinto bean mixture in the microwave. Spread a few tablespoons onto each tostada. Top with nectarine salsa, and sprinkle with goat cheese.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.
