Servings: 4
Serving Size: 2 tostadas each
8 6-inch corn tortillas
Canola oil cooking spray
1 (6 to 7 oz can) boneless, skinless wild Alaskan salmon, drained
1 avocado, diced
2 Tbsp minced pickled jalapenos, PLUS 2 Tbsp pickling juice from the jar, divided
2 cups coleslaw mix (see Tip) OR shredded cabbage
2 Tbsp chopped cilantro
1 (15 oz can) black beans, rinsed
3 Tbsp reduced-fat sour cream
2 Tbsp prepared salsa
2 scallions, chopped
Lime wedges (optional)
Position racks in upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 375 degrees F.
Coat tortillas on both sides with cooking spray. Place on 2 baking sheets. Bake, turning once, until light brown, 12 to 14 minutes.
Combine salmon, avocado and jalapenos in a bowl. Combine cabbage, cilantro and the pickling juice in another bowl. Process black beans, sour cream, salsa and scallions in a food processor until smooth. Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on High until hot, about 2 minutes.
To assemble tostadas, spread each tortilla with some bean mixture and some salmon mixture and top with the cabbage salad. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
Kitchen tip: Look for convenient pre-shredded cabbage-and-carrot "coleslaw mix" near other prepared vegetables in the produce section of the supermarket.
