CLAYUDAS

Today I Made:

CLAYUDAS AND SWEET SUMMER CORN for DINNER.

Recipe from Vegetarian Times June 2008 issue.

Thin Whole Wheat flour tortillas are slathered with a spicy black bean puree, baked, then topped with a red and green cabbage slaw marinated in lime juice.

Clayudas are a Oaxacan dish.

You can call them Mexican pizzas.

Traditionally, giant sized tortillas are used that can feed a whole family.

This version uses an 8 inch whole wheat flour tortilla, for one person.

Because you bake these, they turn out to be healthier than pizzas or even tostadas (which use a fried corn tortilla).

You can bake these in the oven or a toaster oven.

Once baked, you top with the marinated slaw and enjoy whole or cut into quarters.
