Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 taco seasoning
- 6 corn tortillas
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 2 cup cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large pan over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
- Once the beef is browned, add in the taco seasoning and mix until well combined. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Set the beef mixture aside on a plate or tray.
- Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Place the corn tortillas evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overlap them.
- Brush both sides of each tortilla with avocado oil to prevent them from drying out and to add flavor.
- Bake the tortillas in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until they are firm and lightly golden brown.
- Remove the tortillas from the oven and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over each one.
- Add a spoonful of the beef mixture on top of the cheese, leaving a small border around the edges of the tortilla.
- Sprinkle another layer of shredded cheese over the beef to help hold everything together and add extra flavor.
- Return the tostadas to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the tostadas from the oven and top with your favorite fixings, such as diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, diced avocado, sour cream, and salsa.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
