  1. Heat a large pan over medium heat and add the olive oil, onions and a pinch of salt. Cook onions for 3 minutes and then add the garlic, zucchini, red pepper, corn, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper. Cook vegetables for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.
  2. Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees fierenheit. Spread each tostada with 1/4 cup re-fried beans and top with 1/3 cup vegetable mixture and 1-2 tablespoons grated cheese. Bake tostadas for about 5 minutes until beans are heated through and cheese is melted.

Notes

*I used store-bought tostadas to make this recipe even faster, but you could also bake corn tortillas at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes to make your own.
