Grilled Vegetable Tostadas

These tostadas have a fast bean spread instead of refried beans. The recipe makes twice the amount of spread that you'll need, so save the rest for a quick sandwich spread or for scooping up with toasted pita. Serve topped with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired.

Smoky Lentil Patties With Cucumber Slaw

This cucumber slaw is light and refreshing and best served as soon as it's made. Red lentils break down as they cook, making them perfect for the spiced patties. If using another kind of lentil, be sure to mash them with the back of a fork before mixing in other ingredients.
