Tostada Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tostadas

    While the beef is cooking, warm the refried beans in a small saucepan over low heat. Once warmed, set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tostadas

    Spread a layer of refried beans onto each tostada shell. Top with a generous amount of the cooked beef, then add shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and sliced jalapeños.

  4. 4

    Add Sour Cream

    Finish each tostada by adding a dollop of sour cream on top. Serve immediately.
