Chicken and Black Bean Tostadas
Healthy, delicious and made in minutes, these chicken and black bean tostadas are a perfect weeknight supper idea!
- 12 store-bought tostada shells
- 2 16-ounce cans refried black beans
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 2 cups chopped chicken see link below for my favorite chopped chicken recipe
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup prepared cole slaw see link below for my favorite cole slaw recipe
- Assorted toppings: shredded cheese cherry tomatoes, sliced avocado, green onion, lime wedges, salsa, etc.
In a large saute pan, stir together the refried beans and the 1/2 cup salsa. Stir in the chicken, and turn on heat to medium. Cook until heated through, stirring often, for 10-15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350. Place the tostada shells onto a baking sheet, and bake for 5-10 minutes, until crispy.
Divide the chicken and bean mixture evenly among the tostada shells, and top each with a layer of shredded lettuce, and then top with a small amount of the cole slaw. Finish with any combination of the remaining suggested toppings. Serve immediately.
