Tostada Shells

Jalapeño Cream Cheese

Guacamole

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Jalapeño Cream Cheese

  1. 1

    Make the Cream Cheese Mixture

    In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cream cheese, pickled jalapeños, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined. Set aside.

Prepare the Guacamole

  1. 2

    Mash the Avocados

    In another bowl, mash the ripe avocados with a fork or potato masher until creamy but still slightly chunky. Stir in lime juice, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, and salt to taste.

Assemble the Tostada Salad

  1. 3

    Layer the Ingredients

    On a flat surface, take a tostada shell and spread a generous layer of jalapeño cream cheese on top. Next, add a layer of guacamole. Then top with shredded lettuce, black beans, cherry tomatoes, shredded cheese, sliced olives, and a dollop of sour cream.

  2. 4

    Repeat for Remaining Tostadas

    Repeat the layering process with the remaining tostada shells until all ingredients are used.
