Recently, my aunt and her boyfriend came over to watch some tennis and have dinner together. They're vegans too, so it was a genuine vegan fiesta! Just look at all the colors!!!This is the "Black Bean Tostada with Cherry Tomato Salsa" from "Fresh Food Fast," one of my favorite cookbooks. I love that the meals in that book really are fast and really are fresh. This came together so quickly, and was truly delicious: toasty tortilla, warm spicy beans, and fresh crisp veggies. The black beans are cooked up with ground seitan, garlic, and spices... including some chipotle pepper in adobo sauce. It turns out that chipotle peppers in adobo sauce are one of my favorite ingredients in all the world. Chipotle Pepper in Adobo Sauce for President! Chipotle Pepper in Adobo Sauce for Grand Master of the Universe!
My aunt's boyfriend goes crazy for veggies, and he polished off all the salsa even after all the tostadas and beans had been eaten. Between the four of us, we had a 100% qualification rate for the Clean Plate Club! As Borat would say, "Great Success!"
GREAT SUCCESS! Sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteThat is one of the most delicious looking tostadas I have ever seen!
