Recipe from "Cooking with Trader Joe's Cookbook: SKINNY DISH!" by Jennifer K. Reilly, RD.
These pupusas aren’t made of thick hand-made corn tortillas like the traditional Salvadoran version, but they’re still pretty bueno and take only a few minutes to make. Creamy hummus and refried beans take the place of high-fat cheese while cilantro, salsa, and spinach elevate the flavors to a new height.

Ingredients

  • 4 corn tortillas
  • 2 Tbsp hummus, such as Spicy Hummus
  • 2 Tbsp canned low-fat refried beans
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 4 tsp salsa such as Salsa Verde
  • 2 Tbsp thawed frozen chopped spinach (preferably organic)

Instructions

  • 1 To make each pupusa, spread 1 Tbsp hummus on 1 tortilla and 1 Tbsp beans on another. Sprinkle 1 Tbsp each cilantro, salsa, and spinach onto the tortilla with the hummus. Put the tortillas together and cook in a dry skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Flip and cook another 2 minutes on the other side.
  • 2 Repeat with next set of tortillas.
  • 3 Leftovers will last up to a day in the fridge. Reheat in a skillet and enjoy.
