Chorizo Tostadas image

I got this recipe from my sister-in-law. Every time she use to visit she would make it. My family really loves it. One day she was in my kitchen and she said, "hey Shelly, why don't you learn to make this & she showed me how?" I did and the rest is history. Thanks Anna we all love the recipe.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pkg chorizo (i use vegetarian chorizo, it is great and you can't tell the difference)

1/4 c olive oil
1 16oz can(s) diced tomatoes
1 jalapeno (chopped)

tomatoes (chopped)
cheese (shredded)
1 bunch cilantro (chopped)
any other topping you wish sour cream, olives, salsa, green onions

Steps:

  • 1. Add oil, jalapeno, and chorizo to a frying pan. Cook until warmed.
  • 2. Add tomatoes, cilantro and beans. Simmer ingredients on low for 20 minutes, stirring often. Adding reserved bean juice as needed, if it gets to dry.
