I bought and froze blue corn tortillas here in Ontario. They were the only PD ones available from the tortilleria in a nearby city. Can I I thaw and put these in the oven?
Yes, did you watch the Baked Tortilla video? I always use frozen tortillas. I bake them frozen.
This tostada recipe has become a quick, “go to” recipe the past month. I am amazed at how quickly I have have a health, filling meal. What makes this recipe even quicker is having lettuce, onion and tomato already chopped up, storing in the refrigerator.
I use a version of Julie’s Unfried Black Beans, but use pintos with an entire onion, fresh garlic and some red chili peppers along with some chili pepper and cumin. I try to keep the heat down, as my son and wife enjoy a milder flavor.
Nothing quicker than heating the beans on the stove while the tortillas are in the oven warming up to a crisp. I end up building my tostada with the unfried beans, lettuce, onion, tomato, salad, no-yo cheese sauce and some green hot sauce. I didn’t have any, but I would usually have sour cream dream on top.
Great recipe, great flavor. Thank you Julie for another great recipe!
These would be great for a big get together and let everyone top what they want on them.
I love making these! They’re a fast and easy go to meal & you can make them different every time. I love loading them up. My 6 year old loves these too. She loves helping in the kitchen so she really enjoyed putting her own toppings on.
When I make these with kids I call them Mexican Pizza!
What a fun and yummy meal for the whole family! I sprinkled some cumin on mine and added some No Fat Not-Yo Cheeze Sauce.
