I just loved the added kidney beans to the tostada!!! I also love the flavor of the crispy torilla so much better than bought taco shells/tostada. I followed the directions as far as ingredients except omitted the avocado, personal preference. What I did different was to drain the can of beans in the collander and set them aside, I browned the beef with the onion and garlic and then drained. I then returned the beef mixture and beans to pan, added salt, chili powder and pepper. I then added in about a 1/2 cup of water in order to cooked the beans and the spices into the mixture, then removed from heat once water was evaporated. This made for a wonderful Sunday football lunch!!!!

This was really good and easy to make. Next time I will season the meat a bit more. We like things kinda spicy. Thank you so much for posting a quick easy dinner.

This was great! I used one large onion and 2 tsp of a Mexican Chili Blend spice mix. My DD skipped on the beef mixture as she is a vego and really enjoyed it also. Thanks for sharing! A Tostada was new experience for my family.

This made a quick & easy lunch. I did make a few changes to utilize what was on hand. I used a cup of frozen pinto beans instead of the canned and mashed them to a spreadable like consistency. I subbed ground turkey & added 1 t ground cumin and a chipolte pepper. I also sprayed the flour tortillas with cooking spray & baked them. Everything was topped with Salsa Fresca Made for ZWT4.

These were easy to prepare, lots of nice fresh ingredients. Only thing I would change is a little zing, they need to be spicer. Made for ZWT5.

This was very nice for dinner tonight. I also made a few changes with what I had on hand. I thought the meat needed a little something extra so added a tablespoon of taco seasoning. I didn't heat the beans. I, like SusieD, sprayed the wheat tortillas with cooking spray and baked them at 450 for about 6 minutes. That seemed to work well. And for the sour cream and taco sauce, I mixed them together to make a nice dressing. Very nice. Thanks and Congratulation on your football win last week.
