Ingredients
  

1 cup canned white beans (such as cannellini or navy beans), drained and rinsed

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cups mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button mushrooms work well)

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

4 corn tostadas (store-bought or homemade)

1 avocado, sliced

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Crumbled feta or cojita cheese, for topping (optional)

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Sauté the Mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they release their moisture and begin to brown.

    Add Garlic and Seasonings: Stir in the minced garlic and smoked paprika. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

      Incorporate the Beans: Gently fold in the rinsed white beans, fresh thyme, and lemon juice. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the beans to warm through and absorb the flavors. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

        Prepare the Tostadas: While the mushroom and bean mixture is cooking, if needed, lightly toast the corn tostadas in a dry skillet or oven for a minute on each side to add crispness.

          Assemble the Tostadas: Top each tostada with a generous spoonful of the sautéed garlic mushroom and white bean mixture. Add sliced avocado on top.

            Finishing Touches: Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and crumbled feta or cojita cheese, if using. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.

              Serve & Enjoy: Enjoy these savory, plant-powered tostadas as a satisfying snack, appetizer, or light meal!
