Blackbean Tostadas with a spicy topping

This is the perfect easy plant protein dinner with the goodness of loads of fiber as well as lots of vitamins and minerals. I love how easy this is to prepare and so quick which is always a plus when you are running round in the evening. If you can’t get the tostadas, substitute with some small tortillas and gently heat in the oven.
