Tostadas

This is a new after school/pre-dinner snack that my kids have decided is a favorite. It's super easy and very inexpensive to make. :)

Eazy Tostadas

Ingredients

Can of refried beans (or make your own!)

1 lb. ground beef, browned (optional)

1 cup cooking oil

Corn tortillas

Optional toppings

Chopped tomatoes

Cheddar cheese

Sour Cream

Salsa

Shredded lettuce

----------------------------------------------------------

Warm up beans on stove and mix in browned beef if you choose to use beef. Heat oil in skillet on stove. When it's hot fry a corn tortilla in the hot oil. You want to flip the tortilla a couple of times. When the tortilla is hard, like a chip, it's ready. Pat the tortilla dry with paper towels to absorb extra oil. Top tortilla with beans and then with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!

**You can also make bean burritos out of the same ingredients. Only use soft flour tortillas and don't fry them. Just warm them in the microwave or warm skillet, then add the beans, etc...
