Tostadas


 It's rainy and sad here today on the Gulf Coast of Florida, and what gets rid of sad faster than mexican food?  Nothing.  It's impossible to be in a bad mood with a pitcher of margaritas nearby.  Impossible! 

So I pulled out this tostada shell recipe to cheer us all up and whadya know--smiles all around!   I KNEW it! 

ps:  margaritas optional, but highly recommended :)

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

(Making tostada shells this way tastes so much fresher than buying them pre-packaged and it's so easy you'll never go back)

Enough corn tortillas to feed your guests.  I bought 30 for $2.98 at my local grocery store

vegetable oil

salt

Optional toppings:  I like refried beans, taco meat, diced tomatoes, shredded iceburg lettuce, shredded cheddar, and a cantina-type salsa, butt he possibilities are endless


Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Place tortillas on cookie sheet and lightly brush oil on both sides, sprinkle with salt.

Bake for 6 minutes, turn over and bake another 6 minutes


  Serve with your favorite toppings
