About Toastadas
Tostadas are a popular dish in Mexican cuisine, consisting of crispy, golden corn tortillas topped with a variety of delicious ingredients. Typically, they feature a base of refried beans, meat such as shredded chicken or beef, fresh lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and a dollop of sour cream or guacamole. Other common toppings include salsa, avocado slices, or pickled onions, allowing for endless customization. Tostadas can provide a balance of nutrients, with protein from meat or beans and fiber from beans and vegetables. However, their healthiness depends on preparation and toppings; fried tortillas and heavy cheese or sour cream can add excess saturated fat and calories. Opting for baked tostadas and leaner, plant-based toppings can enhance their nutritional value. A tasty and versatile dish, tostadas are enjoyed as a quick meal or snack that showcases authentic flavors of Mexican cuisine.
