Description

A delightful blend of creamy avocado, hearty black beans, and crisp vegetables, perfect for a quick lunch or relaxed dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups green cabbage (thinly shredded)
  • 1 large tomato or red bell pepper (seeded and chopped)
  • 2 large radishes (thinly sliced)
  • 1 red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 can (15 oz) vegan refried black beans (warmed or at room temp)
  • 1 or 2 avocados (pitted, peeled, and sliced)
  • Sriracha cashew cream or cilantro lime cashew sour cream
  • 3 crusty or soft sandwich rolls (split)
  • 1 to 2 limes (freshly squeezed juice)
  • Hot sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your veggies and beans: Slice the cabbage, radishes, and red onion, then chop your tomato or red pepper.
  2. Slice your rolls: Carefully split the sandwich rolls and make a slight hollow area in the top half to hold more filling.
  3. Spread the refried black beans: Generously cover the bottom half of each roll with the warm black beans.
  4. Layer the veggies: Begin stacking! Place avocado slices, followed by a ring of radishes, red onion, and top it off with shredded cabbage.
  5. Add your cream spread: Generously spread your desired condiment on the top roll.
  6. Squeeze lime juice: Drizzle fresh lime juice over the bottom layer before capping it off with the top half of the roll.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Enjoy them immediately or wrap them up for a delightful on-the-go lunch.

Notes

These tortas are best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
