Yum. I baked the chicken (sprinkled with fajita seasoning) the night before, so these meal came together in 15 minutes. I baked corn tortillas for about 10 min, to have "un-fried" tostadas. I warmed & mashed the black beans, and used them as the first layer on the tostada, instead of mixing into the guacamole. DH & I also added a dollop of sour cream. -
Shockingly good! I just tagged this in the game room because I knew I had all the ingredients in the fridge but I had no idea how much my BF and I would love it! I used monterey jack for the cheese (personal preference). This would make a great summertime meal as it is served cold/room temperature. You did it again Juenessa- Another 5 star recipe! Edit: I forgot to mention that I made my own tostada shells by frying corn tortillas in about an inch of vegetable oil until golden on one side and then flipped to the other side until golden. -
This recipe was wonderful and very easy to prepare. Very refreshing for a hot day. Leftovers were just as good. Thank for the post! -
This was tasty and so easy. I even forgot many of the ingredients, including the cumin, tomato, and Tabasco, and it was still so yummy. Also, it was very filling - my boyfriend with the hollow leg was totally satisfied.
