At the beginning of Lent, I had a really ambitious list of vegetarian dinners for Fridays. And while most of the dishes still look appealing, a lot of them just seem too ambitious by the time I’m ready to cook.

Fast and easy? That’s a lot more appealing at 6 o’clock on a Friday night.

These tostadas fall into the fast and easy category. They were so good! I only toasted up half of the tortillas for dinner and then toasted the rest for lunch over the weekend.
