Tostadas for dinner?

We have had some corn tortillas in my fridge for a while.  You know that package that gets moved every time you need something from in there?  I had originally bought these because I love corn tortillas but found out that the rest of the family does not :(  The other day I finally got to the point where I need to use these up and some other things that I had in my fridge as well!

These were really just a meal of leftovers that worked out to tummy stuffing, yummy, perfection!

Tostadas

Ingredients:

Corn tortillas (2 for each tostada)
oil for frying
1 lb ground beef
taco seasoning
refried beans
green chilies
iceberg lettuce, shredded
cheddar cheese, shredded
onion, chopped
sour cream
guacamole (I just mashed up some avocados added salt, pepper, garlic powder and some lime juice this time!)
jalapenos, chopped
green onions, chopped
cilantro, chopped

Directions:

  1. Heat the oil for frying the corn tortillas in a large deep sided pot.  Cook each tortilla individually until puffed up and crispy.  Transfer to a cooling rack to cool an drain.They are now tostada shells.
  2. Brown the ground beef and add taco seasoning to taste and 1/4 water and reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. Heat the refried beans with the green chilies. 

To Assemble:

  1. Place one tostada shell on a plate and spread with some refried beans (this is all done to taste so I am not going to give you actual measurements for the assembly!), ground beef mixture, and some cheese.
  2. Top with another tostada shell and spread more beans and beef.
  3. For the topping just add what you like using the ingredients and the picture above as a guide.  I sprinkled cheese, lettuce, onion, sour cream, guacamole, jalapenos, green onions and chopped cilantro.

These were a delicious and speedy week night meal.  The time comes in the assembly but that can be done quickly as well!!!

As Always…

Happy Entertaining!!!
