Raw Tostadas with Spicy Strawberry Avocado Salad and Cilantro Relish

Written by
Raw Tostadas with Spicy Strawberry Avocado Salad and Cilantro Relish

Strawberries make a sweet splash against the spicy jalapeño and cooling jicama in this recipe, standing in for more traditional tostada flavors like avocado and lime. The raw tortillas make for a different texture than the usual crisped version—one that’s fun to try out.
