Roasted Beet Tostadas with Avocado Crema, Goat Cheese & Pepitas


  • Author: Camille Styles

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 6 medium-sized beets (I love a mix of red and golden)
  • 1 small avocado
  • 1/2 cup light sour cream
  • 1 lime
  • kosher salt
  • 1 package Flatout Light Original Flatbread
  • 1 large watermelon radish, thinly sliced (or sub with regular radishes)
  • 1/2 cup roasted pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese or queso fresco
  • a handful of any fresh herbs – I used a mixture of chives, cilantro, and sunflower sprouts
  • flaky salt for finishing
  • optional toppings: lime wedges, edible flowers (usually with the fresh herbs at the grocery store), chimichurri for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450. Scrub beets, then wrap in a foil pouch and roast for 1 ½ hours, until a knife can easily be inserted into the middle. Remove from oven and let cool, and turn the oven temperature down to 350.
  2. Meanwhile, make the avocado crema. Mash up the avocado, then use a fork to vigorously stir into the sour cream until smooth. Add the juice from the lime and a pinch of salt, mix again, then set aside.
  3. Place 2 or 3 flatbread onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, and toast in the oven until crisp, about 10 minutes.
  4. Remove flatbread from oven and let cool slightly, then top with a layer of crema, and arrange the beets and radishes in a pretty design on top.
  5. Scatter pumpkin seeds, goat cheese crumbles, and herbs over the top. Slice into wedges and eat!
