Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tostadas

Tostada with sweet potato and black beans

Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tostadas

We love these Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tostadas. They are great way to use up leftover baked/roasted sweet potatoes. The flavor combination of the sweet potatoes with the black beans and monteray jack cheese is perfect…..and so simple.

Aren’t tostadas great. They make a simple and fun snack or can even pass as a quick meal. Kids will generally eat about anything if it is on a tostada shell, so make the most of it and pile on super foods, like sweet potatoes and black beans.

Possibilities for topping options are basically endless. Over on The Mother Huddle today, Destri posted 12 Simple ideas for topping tostadas. I’m dying to try the tomato and avacado idea!
