Ingredients
- Mi Rancho Organic Corn Tortillas
- 1 can of Refried Beans
- 1/2 lb of Shredded Chicken
- 1 cup of Mi Rancho Organic Salsa Verde
- Salt and Pepper to Taste
- ¼ White Onion, Cut in Strips
- 1 Tomato, Diced
- ½ Head of Romaine Lettuce Finely Chopped
- Queso Fresco
- Mexican Crema
- Canola Oil or Oil of Choice
- 1 Avocado, Sliced
Instructions
Fry your tortillas one at a time until they are crisp. Remove and place on top of a paper towel to remove excess oil. Sprinkle immediately with light salt and allow to cool.
In a large bowl, toss your shredded chicken in the Organic Salsa Verde. Allow to sit.
Add a can of refried beans to a pot on the stove and heat them for about 3-5 minutes on medium heat. Add about 1/3 cup of water to the beans if you find they are too thick to make them easier to spread.
Allow the beans to cool slightly and then spread the beans over each of the tostadas. Then, top with lettuce, chicken, onion and tomato. Lastly, add Queso Fresco, avocado slices and top off with Mexican crema.
