A Different Tostada

Recipe By :Dottie
Categories:Beef/Pork

8 each red cabbage leaf -- washed; raw
1 can black soy beans -- drained
2 tablespoons lard -- or shortening
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 pound ground beef
1 cup shredded lettuce
1/2 cup diced tomato
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 Tablespoon chili powder -- divided
2 teaspoons cumin powder -- divided
1 tablespoon dried oregano -- divided
1 each salt and pepper -- to taste

In a food processor, process drained beans with 1/2 the seasonings
until desired consistency is reached. Heat lard in a skillet and fry
processed, seasoned beans over low heat for about 7-8 minutes or until warmed
through and creamy looking. Fry ground beef with remaining seasonings until cooked through.
Assemble tostadas: lay out cabbage leaves (you need firm leaves).
Spread with the refried beans, then the meat, onion, lettuce, tomato then top
with the cheese. This makes 8 large tostadas -you can also skip the leaves and add a
layer of sour cream, guacamole and salsa to make a layer dip that's great with pork rinds.
