Cheeseburger Tostadas
Here’s a cool “baked” version of a tostada – Cheeseburger Tostadas. This just came to me yesterday. I pitched the idea to my daughter, Sarah and she said it sounded cool. So, the Cheeseburger Tostada was born in my house. Did you know that this one tortilla has 19g of carbs, whereas a bun runs an average of 26g? Thought you might want to know that.
These are totally customizable, just for you. You could use ground pork or ground turkey instead of ground beef. I used ground beef. You could use a any type of tortilla you want. Go low carb if you need to. I used a flour tortilla. Plus, I baked it. I do try and do some things the “healthier” way.
Toppings
- lettuce
- onions
- tomatoes
- jalapenos
- pickles
- hot sauce
- or any type of dressing you like can be added.
I used some shredded iceberg lettuce, couple rings of white onion and dill pickles. Ranch Dressing would have been good. I know it sounds weird, but hey, I’m weird.
