Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of white wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until dissolved. Add the sliced jalapeño and chopped cilantro, stirring well. Let sit at room temperature while preparing the salad.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup of thinly sliced red onion with the juice and zest of 1 lime and a pinch of salt. Allow to marinate for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and smash each half gently with a rolling pin. Slice into half-moons and place in a colander. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 5-10 minutes to draw out moisture.
- In a skillet over medium heat, sauté 2 minced garlic cloves in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until golden. In a blender, combine sautéed garlic, pickled jalapeños, juice of 1/2 lime, 1 tablespoon of vinegar, 1 tablespoon of agave syrup, 2 tablespoons of miso, and cilantro. Blend until smooth.
- In a large bowl, combine drained cucumbers, cannellini beans, chickpeas, and marinated onions. Pour dressing over and toss gently until coated.
- Slice an avocado and mash with salt. Spread on tostadas and top with the bean salad and pickled jalapeños.
- Store salad and pickled jalapeños in airtight containers in the fridge separately for up to 4 days. Combine when ready to serve.
