Ingredients
  

8 small corn tortillas

1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered

1 ripe avocado, diced

4 large eggs

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it's ready for the tortilla cups.

    Prepare Tortilla Cups: Lightly brush both sides of each corn tortilla with olive oil. Gently press the tortillas into the wells of a muffin tin to form small cups. If needed, you can use baking cups or muffin liners to help create the shape.

      Bake Tortilla Cups: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the tortillas become golden brown and crisp. Once they are done, carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven and set the cups aside to cool slightly.

        Scramble the Eggs: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until thoroughly mixed. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and scramble the eggs, cooking for about 4-5 minutes or until they are fully cooked and fluffy. Once done, remove the skillet from the heat.

          Assemble Tostada Cups: Begin assembling your tostada cups by adding a spoonful of the drained black beans to the bottom of each tortilla cup. Follow this layer with a generous portion of the scrambled eggs.

            Add Fresh Toppings: Next, sprinkle the quartered cherry tomatoes and diced avocado on top of the eggs in each cup. Finish with a handful of shredded cheddar cheese. Return the muffin tin to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, just enough time for the cheese to melt beautifully.

              Garnish and Serve: Carefully remove the tostada cups from the oven. Top each with a sprinkle of fresh chopped cilantro for a burst of flavor. Serve the tostada cups warm, accompanied by lime wedges to squeeze over for a refreshing zest.
