Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Cook the quinoa–black bean mixture
Heat the oven to 400°F.
- Set aside half the Southwestern simmer sauce blend for the tostada sauce.
- Rinse the quinoa.
- Rinse the black beans.
In a small sauce pot, stir together half the simmer sauce blend and ¾ cup [1½ cups] lightly salted water, then add the quinoa. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the quinoa is tender and the liquid is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork, stir in the beans, cover, and keep warm. Meanwhile, prepare the tortillas.
2
Crisp the tortillas
On a sheet pan, brush the tortillas all over with 1 to 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt; arrange side by side. Toast in the oven, turning halfway through, until the tortillas are crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the tortillas to a plate. Meanwhile, prepare the cabbage slaw.
3
Make the cabbage slaw
- Cut the tomatoes in half.
- Juice half the lime; cut the remaining half into wedges for garnish. [Juice 1 lime; cut the remaining lime into wedges.]
- Coarsely chop the cilantro.
In a medium bowl, toss together the cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, cilantro, 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] lime juice, and 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil; season to taste with salt and pepper.
4
Warm the tostada sauce
In a small sauce pot over medium heat, combine the remaining simmer sauce blend and ¼ cup [½ cup] water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve
Transfer the tortillas to individual plates. Top with the quinoa–black bean mixture and tostada sauce, spoon on the slaw, and garnish with the guacamole. Serve with the lime wedges.
