Ground Beef Tostada



I used to love the .59 cent tostada at Taco Bell. I haven't had one in many many years, but I really had a craving for a simple tostada. To make the tostada I like the tostada shells from Guerrero and red taco sauce from La Victoria. The red taco sauce is mild and almost reminds me of enchilada sauce.

Ingredients:
Refried beans
Ground beef
Trader Joe's taco seasoning
Shredded iceberg lettuce
Chopped tomato
Diced yellow onion
Sliced black olives
Cilantro

Preparation:
To make a quick taco meat, fry your ground beef and add some Trader Joe's taco seasoning. Their seasoning comes in little packets and is very tasty. Mix the taco seasoning with the
cooked ground beef and your done.
 
To assemble your tostada, place a tostada shell on a serving plate. Spread some refried beans onto the tostada shell. Add ground beef, shredded lettuce, tomato, onion, olives, shredded cheese and chopped cilantro. Drizzle on some taco sauce and you're done. Avocado and sour cream are nice upgrades if available.
