We have several recipes for raw tacos on our website, but we wanted to change it up a bit. These raw tostadas are full of bold flavors that all complement each other. You’ll need extra romaine lettuce leaves to serve as the taco shells.
Note: In the picture, you’ll notice that the tostada is on a tortilla, but tortillas are not cleanse-approved so don’t eat them! Use the lettuce leaves!
