Tempeh tostadas are baked and topped with mashed avocado and soy for a quick healthy meal or snack that's plant-based and vegan with a gluten-free option.
Preheat oven to 400ºF and line a baking sheet with foil. Spread tortillas flat on baking sheet. (Tortillas shouldn’t touch each other while baking. Cook in batches or use a second sheet if needed.) Brush both sides of each tortilla with oil, sprinkle with salt, and place baking sheet in the oven. Bake 8-12 minutes or until edges are golden brown, pausing after 4-5 minutes to flip the tortillas and rotate the baking sheet.
In the meantime, prepare the tempeh. Combine crumbled tempeh and spices in a mixing bowl and set aside. In a separate bowl, mash together the avocado and lime and set aside.
Remove baked tortillas from the oven and allow them to cool and crisp for a 2-3 minutes before spreading one side of each tortilla with mashed avocado and topping with crumbled tempeh. Place baking sheet back into the oven and bake until warm, 3-5 additional minutes. Remove from the oven and serve. Enjoy!
