Susan's Pinto Bean Tostados

Here is my favorite recipe so far. It reminds me of the "Stufies" I used to eat in Colorado.

Take a cookie sheet and spray with cooking spray, then take 2 whole wheat flour tortillas, spray them on both sides lightly with cooking spray. Cook in 375 degree oven for 7 1/2 minutes then turn over and cook for another 7 1/2 minutes. This will give you a nice crispy tostado. You can do this while cooking the bean mixture.

Chop one medium sized onion
Chop one medium sized red pepper (red are my favorite, you can use any color you want)
Dice 2 cloves of garlic
Cook in 2 tsp of olive oil
Add one can of green chilis
Add one can of Pinto beans

Cook for about 5 minutes. Pour mixture over the tostado. or  break up pieces and then put mixture on it. I use a knife to cut my tostado up and then pick up the pieces to eat.


In this picture, I also steamed fresh asparagus to eat with this meal. Delicious!
