Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
- 2 corn tortillas
- 1 ripe avocado
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt to taste
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Optional: Fried or poached eggs for topping
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the corn tortillas, cooking for about 2-3 minutes on each side until crispy and slightly golden.
- In a bowl, mash the avocado with lime juice, chili powder, and salt until creamy but still chunky.
- Spread the chili-lime avocado mixture evenly over the crispy tostadas.
- Top with diced red onion, tomatoes, and chopped cilantro.
- If desired, top with a fried or poached egg for added protein and richness.
Notes
Tip: For an even crunchier tostada, bake the tortillas in the oven at 400°F for about 5-7 minutes.
For a quick breakfast, use store-bought tostadas. If you prefer a spicier kick, feel free to add diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of cayenne pepper. These tostadas are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftover avocado mixture in an airtight container with a layer of lime juice on top to prevent browning.
Experiment with toppings! Feta cheese, diced tomatoes, or even a dollop of Greek yogurt can take these tostadas to the next level.
