Seitan Tostadas

Seitan Tostadas-This recipe was developed by my Mexican husband to add more Mexican flavors to our vegetarian life.

Instructions:

Prepare seitan per package instructions, add seasoning (we like El Venado Fajita Sazón). Assemble-in this order: tostada, refried beans (we use the vegan ranchero beans from siete), seitan, lettuce, tomato, avocado, salsa, and queso fresco. Serve with Mexican rice. I attached a recipe I found a vegan queso fresco but you can also use vegan feta, as queso fresco is a salty cheese and so is feta.
