These poblano chile and onion tostadas are a great meatless dish for Lent, and easy to prepare. You just need poblano chiles, butter, onions, cream, refried beans, cheese and salt and pepper, that's it! It is that easy.

Add an agua fresca, like my watermelon cooler or agua de jamaica (a traditional Mexican favorite made with hibiscus flower), and finish with a delicious dessert like 3 milk cake, blueberry-lemon flan or Mexican cheesecake and your family will be thrilled.

Here is how:
