Preparation
Fry corn tortillas in avocado oil until golden and crisp, or brush with oil and bake in the oven until crispy.

Heat the refried beans in a saucepan or microwave until warm.
Slice tomatoes and avocados, and prepare other toppings as needed.
Assemble the tostadas by spreading refried beans on each tortilla, adding the cooked jackfruit, and topping with cabbage, pickled onions, tomatoes, avocados, cilantro, and optional vegan sour cream and salsa.
