Meatless Monday- Tostadas

It's Monday already. We spent the weekend in San Diego with family and the time went by so fast. Did you do anything fun over weekend?
Today's post was a meal I actually made last Monday and in case you don't have anything planned for dinner tonight, I'm sharing it with you today. Mexican food is one of my favorites and since this dish is packed full of flavors, you won't miss the meat.

How good does this bite or several bites look? I had to force myself to stop stuffing my face before I picked up my camera.

Here's how I made them-

Preheat oven to 350 deg. Spray both sides of 4 corn tortillas (or as many as you're making) with cooking spray and bake until crispy.

Prepare and add toppings:
1 can of vegetarian refried beans, heated
2 chopped tomatoes
1 large onion carmelized in a little olive oil
1 large avocado chopped
Shredded Mexican cheese blend
Sliced black olives
Dollop of sour cream. 
Your favorite salsa
Obviously, you can use whatever toppings you like. What do you like? I've been know to dump hot sauce all over my tostadas as well. So So Spicy and Gooooood!

Meatless Monday- Tostadas

Happy Martin Luther King Day everyone! Did you get the day off? I enjoyed this lazy Monday very much. I didn't roll out of bed until noon and then I spent the rest of the day in the kitchen. And I may have watched Life As We Know It and It's Complicated again for the thousandth time. 
I love Meatless Monday. It forces me to be creative with our meals and it saves a few bucks. Mexican food is a favorite in our house so Meatless Monday meant tostadas this week.
Pardon the orangey/shadowey photo. I'm still trying to figure out my camera.

I bake corn tortillas sprayed on both sides with a little canola oil cooking spray at 400 deg until crispy. Then I top the crispy tortillas with vegetarian refried beans, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced black olives, diced  avocado, salsa and sour cream. Quick, simple and so delicious. You may even have time to whip up a margarita to toast your Meatless Monday success.

Do you participate in Meatless Monday? Or meatless any other day of the week?
