Quick 7 Layer Vegan Tostadas
Vegan 7 Layer Vegan Tostadas are quick and simple to prepare. They're ready in under 20 minutes! A go-to when I'm in the mood for an easy Mexican meal.
Ingredients
Tostada
- 8 corn tortillas*
- 1 medium romaine heart, chopped
- Purple cabbage, shredded
- 1 large tomato
- Cilantro
- Avocado
- BBQ ranch dressing
Seasoning for Beans
- 1 can (14 oz.) refried beans
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ¼ scant teaspoon Himalayan pink salt, or to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon paprika
- 2-4 Tablespoons non-dairy milk, to thin
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400ºF. Place corn tortillas on a baking sheet and bake for 13-20 min, or until crispy. Flipping the tortillas halfway through baking.
- Chop the the veggies and prepare the dressing (if using)
- Add the beans and seasonings to a medium saucepan. Mix and heat over medium/low until beans are warm. If needed, add almond milk to achieve desired consistency.
- Layer the tostadas: beans, lettuce, cabbage, tomato, dressing, cilantro, avocado.
- I also like to sprinkle a little cayenne pepper and a squirt of lime on top for that extra kick.
Notes
Tortilla Note: Cooking time on the tortillas can vary. If I notice some tortillas are done sooner than others, I'll remove them from the oven and allow the others to finish cooking.

Has anyone tried using soy or rice milk instead of almond? If so, how was the flavour (nut allergy)?
Where you get your protein!
I would suggest trying a soy milk over rice milk since rice milk is thinner. Using an unsweetened plain soy milk shouldn't affect the flavor at all. Enjoy! :)
