Recipe: Tostadas

March 11, 2013 by Ashley T

This recipe is a crock pot recipe but can be made without your crock pot if you are running short of time to wait for your meal to be done. I’m not sure if you’d get the same flavor for the meat since it isn’t cooking in the beans, tomato sauce, and taco seasonings. Its great for the whole family since everyone can pick their own toppings! Try these tostadas and you’ll fall in love.

Toppings (all are optional):

Combine all  main ingredients into the crock pot.

Cover and cook on low for 6 hours  or on high for 3 hours.

    I never thought of putting the meat and beans together. I will be trying this later this week. Thanks!

    I've never made taco meat in the slow cooker, but it seems like it would give a deeper flavor. I'll have to try it!

    We love tacos and tostadas at our house, but I've never tried making the meat in the slow cooker. I'll have to give it a try!

    These look really good. We generally do them on the soft wraps but I love this idea.
