Awesomely Tasty No-Chopping Tostadas

Dear Turkey,

Sometimes you want beans
But you don't want to make rice
'Cause that's for dinner


Awesomely Tasty No-Chopping Tostadas
(serves 2)

Ingredients:
- 1 T olive oil
- 1 T minced garlic (I used jarred)
- 1 T honey
- 1 T cumin
- 1 can black beans, undrained if you use Goya
- 1/2 c fruity salsa (or regular salsa, if you want)
- To assemble: small tortillas (I used flour), cheese (I used queso fresco), lettuce (just picked!), chipotle tabasco sauce

Instructions:
- Heat the first 4 ingredients and let the garlic start to brown (this won't take long). Pour in the beans and salsa and cook down until most of the liquid is gone. Try not to stir so that you get a delicious crust on the bottom of your beans. This will take 5-10 minutes, depending on the size of your pan. It's not as likely to burn as you think it will be. Turn off the heat and scrape/mix everything together so that the crusty part gets mixed in.
- Warm your tortillas in the microwave. Top with lettuce, beans, cheese, tabasco.

Enjoy,
Tofu
