Red Pepper-steak Tostadas, This recipe was printed in the winter edition of Sabroso, a southwest dining guide. I modififed the original recipe to reduce the amount of fat not taste., I loved this! It was my first time having a ‘tostada’. It reminded me of a cross between an open faced taco and a taco salad. The key to this recipe is to make sure your tostada is nice and crispy. My first batch could have spent another minute in the oven. They were not quite crispy enough and made it difficult to eat. I couldn’t cut through it. The next batch was perfect though. The tostado cracked as you cut into it, making little chips that you could use to eat with. I got creative with the toppings for this, and piled on everything I had lying around. Lettuce, chicken, black beans, corn, red peppers, cilantro, chedder cheese and sourcream and salsa mixed together. Next time I definately want to try the ranch dressing with the salso. I just didn’t have any this time around. This was a great recipe though and something FUN and DIFFERENT for dinner. Thanks for posting!, The best thing about this recipe was the inspiration of something other than the usual for dinner. I added a sliced onion to the peppers. Next time I think I’d prefer just plain sour cream instead of ranch dressing, just a personal preference. Good idea to get out of the dinner rut! Thank you!
