For This Recipe You Will Need:
- Tostadas Shells (I used Guerrero Brand)
- Guacamole Dip (I used Marketside Brand from Walmart)
- Roma Tomatoes (chopped)
- Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese, or Reduced Fat Fiesta Cheese
- Romaine Lettuce (chopped)
- Reduced Fat Sour Cream (as a topping if desired)
- Your Favorite Salsa and Chips (as a side, and you can also use the salsa as a topping if desired)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
This below is what the tostadas shell package looks like
Cook shells for 6 minutes, then let cool
Place shells on a plate, smear on desired amount of with guacamole dip with a butter knife (I usually add 1-2 Tablespoons per tostada), top with romaine lettuce, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheese
These are delicious and simple! I love that they are meatless for our meatless nights, and they are so fresh tasting, and very quick to make.
Note For Meat Lovers: You can always change up this recipe to suit your families needs, by adding Mexican seasoned ground beef or ground turkey, and you can use refried beans in place of the guacamole dip.
If desired, serve with Chips and Salsa
Enjoy!
Tip: To save the left over guacamole dip and have minimal browning of it, put a piece of plastic wrap over the top of the dip and press it down over the dip until the air is removed and the dip is as level as possible in the container, then place the lid to the dip back on the container and of course, keep refrigerated. I've found that by doing this, it preserves it better and there's less browning on the top of the dip when I am ready to use it again the next day. And if there is a little bit of browning, I can easily take a knife or spoon and scrape the thin brown layer off easier too.
