BEEF, BEAN AND AVOCADO TOSTADA

DINNER AT HOME

These Beef, Bean and Avocado Tostadas were some of the best I have ever eaten in my life. Yes that good.  Low carb too with A La Madre low carb Corn Tortillas.  So good we ate these two nights in a row.

After enjoying incredible Beef Tacos for Taco Tuesday we turned the leftovers into Tostadas.

Used the A La Madre low carb Tortillas and they were super crispy with great texture and flavor.  We started with a layer of Spicy Refried Beans on the fried tortilla and then topped with Seasoned Beef, Hot Sauce, Lettuce, Cheddar Cheese, Pico de Gallo, Cotija Cheese and slice Avocado.  Oh my these were so delicious and filling.  Tostada heaven!

Damn...this was good.  Used Rotisserie Chicken that I shredded and mixed with sautéed onions, jalapeños and a can of Mexican Style Tomatoes.  Let it simmer for an hour and crush up the tomatoes really good.  In another saucepan I sautéed lots of onions and jalapeños and then added a can of Spicy Refried Beans.  Mixed and simmered until the beans were warm and creamy.  Layered the beans first, then the chicken, hot sauce, lettuce, cheese Pico de Gallo and topped with Avocado.  Probably one of my favorite Tostadas ever.  Use the pre-cooked Tostadas so you don't have to use oil and fry.

Still craving the Mexican food after a trip to San Diego so I cooked up some delicious and filling Shredded Chicken and Bean Tostadas.  These are so good and when you buy the pre-fried Tortillas they can be made in minutes with no frying.  I top the Corn Tortilla with a layer of Spicy Refried Beans, then the Shredded Chicken, Hot Sauce, Lettuce, Cheese and Pico.

I love Tostadas and there is no better place to eat them then at home.  I start with a fried corn tortilla than place a layer of refried beans and then a topping of Carne Asada.  Sometimes I go just plain bean and sometimes we use shredded or cubed chicken.  A little hot sauce, lettuce, cheese and Pico de Gallo.  I like to use the Spicy Jalapeño Rosarita Refried Beans and then add a little extra sautéed onion and jalapeño.  If you do not want to pull out oil and fry up the corn tortillas, I highly recommend using Guerrero Tostadas.  These are pre made tortillas that you just warm in the oven for around ten minutes.  Great tasting and crispy tortillas without frying them at home.

DINNER AT HOME

I was craving a good Bean Tostada and decided to make them myself rather than going to one of Hawaii's terrible Mexican Restaurants and paying $10 for a tasteless piece of crap.  Grabbed my favorite Rosarita Spicy Jalapeño Refried Beans from Wall Mart and a bag of Guerrero Tostadas from the Supermarket.  I love to use the Guerrero Tostadas because they are pre-cooked which means I don't need to heat up a bunch of oil to cook corn tortillas.  These really save time and clean up time.  I love Rosarita Spicy Jalapeño Refried Beans right out of the can, but I also like to kick them up a notch by sautéing some onion and jalapeño in a little bit of Olive Oil.  Once the onions and jalapeño are cooked, I add the can of beans and heat it all up.  Spread the bean mixture onto the Tostada and then top with fresh lettuce, cheese and Pico De Gallo.  I always put a bunch of hot sauce on the beans before piling up the veggies.  These Tostadas are better than most Hawaii Mexican Restaurants and a fraction of the cost.
