Description

Crispy tortillas topped with creamy avocado, spicy scrambled eggs, fresh salsa, and cheese for a delightful breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Small corn tortillas
  • Olive oil or cooking spray
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ripe avocado, smashed
  • 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup corn (canned or frozen)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (pepper jack or cheddar)
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: hot sauce for an extra kick

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and place tortillas on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil or spray with cooking spray and bake for 5-7 minutes until golden and crisp.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into a bowl, whisk with salt and pepper, and pour into the skillet. Scramble until just set.
  3. Layer the baked tortillas with black beans and then add the scrambled eggs on top.
  4. Dollop the smashed avocado generously on each tostada.
  5. Sprinkle diced tomatoes and red onions over the tostadas, followed by corn and shredded cheese.
  6. Finish with a dash of salt, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Drizzle with hot sauce if desired.
  7. Serve immediately while warm and crispy, with fresh fruit or light salad on the side.

Notes

Customize toppings with bell peppers, spinach, or feta cheese; substitute eggs with scrambled tofu for a vegan option.
