Cinco de Mayo is tomorrow and if you have been following along, you know how much I love Mexican food. Jared and I could eat it daily. Before you say anything, I know this isn't authentic Mexican cuisine but it is a flashback to my younger years. You know, the late night drive-thru runs in college and the high school trips to "the city."
The layers of beef, cheese, sour cream, tomatoes and then the crunch from the tostada are so good! It’s perfect a perfect easy dinner that everyone in the family can customize to their liking. Have fun with this recipe and switch up the toppings and ingredients! We added jalapenos, green peppers, and black beans.
