21 Day Fix Tostadas
- 1 lb. extra lean ground beef, I use 96/4 or 98/2
- 1 Tbsp. chopped garlic
- 1 1/2 C chopped green onions
- 1 14 oz. can of low sodium diced tomotoes
- 1 4 oz. can green chiles
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp chile powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 14 oz. low sodium fat free refried beans (or make your own by rinsing 1 can of black or pinto beans in a strainer. Spraying a skillet with a touch of oil spray and mashing beans with low sodium chicken or vegetable broth until beans have the consistency you are looking for.)
- 8 corn tortillas
- 4 tsp. vegetable oil
- mixed green lettuce
- salsa
- cheese (optional)
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with foil.
Brown ground beef. Add garlic and chopped green onions when ground beef is nearly cooked.
Add in diced tomatoes and green chiles. Mix in seasonings well.

Brush each side of corn tortilla with ~1/4 tsp of oil and place on baking sheet. Place in oven allowing to bake ~3-5 minutes each side. Watch as these burn easily!
Serve each tostada with 1 crispy baked tortilla, 1/2 C of beef and bean mixture, ~1/4 C torn mixed green lettuce and 1-2 Tbsp of salsa. If using cheese use 1/2 blue container of cheese per tostada.
1 serving is 2 tostadas. 21 Day Fix portions = 2 Green containers, 2 Yellow containers and 1 Red container (optional 1 blue container).
Simple. Easy and Delicious! My son had 2 servings so I would say they were a hit!!
Note: Add more seasonings if you like. I usually don't measure my seasonings, when I'm cooking, unless I'm following a specific recipe for the first time, so what I have listed here is a guesstimate.
