Biscuit Tostadas
"Kids love these kid-sized tostadas and so do adults that want small portions. They are best eaten on a plate with a knife and fork. Serve with a salad side if you want."

Edit: DH and I fell in love with these super easy entrees! So quick, and we both loved the taste of the biscuit with the taco style toppings. I even accidently used the "layers" style biscuits, but it still turned out wonderful. Thanks! I found a recipe similar to this for "Shrimp Biscuit Tostadas" on the Pillsbury website and thought I'd just comment on the variation rather than post a new recipe. Their version used 3/4 c. small cooked shrimp instead of the ground turkey and topped with salsa, cheese, sour cream, lettuce and avocado. Sounds great either way...I'll be back to review when I've tried them! -
This was such a pleasant find. Grandkids over today to bake with "Grannyma". This was just what they like and they could help make it! I cooked the turkey, the ten yr.old opened and separated the biscuits, and the 8yr.old smashed them flat. I used half the amount of salsa, and added 1/2cup shredded cheddar cheese. Since they find lettuce,"stupid"(sorry)this was left off. Fact is, they ate them with their hands and it was very messy...just like they like it! Thanks for a fun meal!
