I’m all about compromise. And about making your favorite traditional comfort foods with real ingredients. This entire recipe is both gluten and dairy-free! I used cassava flour Siete tortillas, but you can use your favorite! I love to serve this as an appetizer if I’m hosting a dinner party, or eat a couple myself for a quick, throw-it-together dinner.
The best part of this recipe is that the cream sauce is super versatile, perfect for spreading on this tostada or even serving as a dip for your Siete Chips (try it with the Lime flavor)!

To make this recipe, you first have to cook your tortillas on a greased hot pan or griddle so that they become nice and crisp to work as our tostada base.
As for the Avocado Cream sauce, it can be made in a blender (talk about a quick recipe)! All you have to do is throw all of the ingredients into your food processor or blender, and blend until completely smooth and creamy. I don’t blame you if you end up eating this sauce straight up with a spoon. Not from personal experience or anything...
I roasted the tomatoes in the oven with a bit of olive oil, salt, pepper, and chili flakes, but you can also blister them in a pan with a bit of olive oil! They add a gorgeous color and sweetness to the pizzette, and along with peppery arugula, create the perfect balance of flavors in this recipe!
To assemble, top the tortilla with a layer of avocado cream sauce, followed by arugula, tomatoes, and a pinch of flaky sea salt.
Enjoy these tostadas for brunch topped with an egg, as a snack, or serve as an appetizer for your next party!
