Ingredients

  • 8 6-inch corn tortillas

  • Canola oil cooking spray

  • 1 6-ounce can boneless, skinless wild Alaskan salmon, drained

  • 1 avocado, diced

  • 2 tablespoons minced pickled jalapeño peppers, plus 2 tablespoons pickle juice from jar, divided

  • 2 cups shredded cabbage

  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

  • 1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed

  • 3 tablespoons reduced fat sour cream

  • 2 tablespoons prepared salsa

  • 2 scallions, chopped

  • Lime wedges (optional)

Directions

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven, and preheat to 375°F.

  • Coat the tortillas on both sides with cooking spray. Place on 2 baking sheets. Bake, turning once, until light brown, 12-14 minutes.

  • Combine the salmon, avocado and jalapeños in a bowl. Combine the cabbage, cilantro, and pickling juice in another bowl.

  • Process the black beans, sour cream, salsa, and scallions in a food processor until smooth. Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high until hot, about 2 minutes.

  • To assemble the tostadas, spread some bean mixture and some salmon mixture on each tortilla and top them with the cabbage salad. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
