Ingredients

Tostada shells:
4 large tortillas (See note 1 and note 2)
2 tablespoons olive oil
some chili flakes
some dried oregano
salt
Tostadas:
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (125 g)
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
2 teaspoons chopped coriander (or parsley)
1 organic lime
2 chorizo sausages (each weighing about 125 g/ 4.4 oz)
1/2 cup kidney beans (100 g)
2 small fresh jalapeňos or 6-8 pickled jalapeňos pieces from a jar (to taste)
8 radishes
4 crispy salad leaves
1 cup g/ 3.5 oz/ 1 cup grated cheese (100 g, See note 3)
some chili flakes
salt and pepper

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius/ 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
Season: Place the tortillas on the baking trays. Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle them with salt, chili flakes, and dried oregano.
Bake the tortillas for 4 minutes. Turn over and bake for about 3 minutes more or until crisp and lightly browned. Remove from the oven.
See above for tips on storing the tostada shells.
Stir the yogurt with salt and fresh herbs. Wash and dry the lime. Add the zest and the juice of 1/2 of the lime to the yogurt, stir well. Set aside. Keep the other half of the lime for later, cut it in wedges, and serve the wedges with the tostadas.
Sausages: Remove the chorizo casings. Heat a nonstick pan and add the sausages, breaking them into pieces with a wooden spoon. Fry over medium-low heat for about 3 minutes, breaking all the lumps with the wooden spoon.
Add the kidney beans and some salt.
Cook: Use a potato masher to roughly mash the chorizo and bean mixture. Cook until cooked through and rather crispy, about 7 minutes or so. Adjust the taste with more salt and some pepper, if necessary.
Prepare topping: While the sausages are cooking, shred the salad leaves, finely dice the radishes and finely chop the jalapeňos. Grate the cheese.
Top tostadas: Spread some yogurt on top of the tostadas. Divide the chorizo and bean mixture between the tostadas. Top with the shredded salad, radishes, jalapeňos and sprinkle with the cheese and chili flakes.
Serve immediately with lime wedges.

Ingredients

SEASONINGS FOR MEAT
1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb chorizo (mexican sausage)
2 tsp cumin, ground
1 medium tomato, diced
1/4 c jalapeno peppers, diced
1/3 c onion, diced
2 tsp chili powder
1 1/2 tsp coriander & annatto (sazon)
1/2 jar(s) pizza sauce (approx)
TOPPINGS FOR YOUR TOSTADA
1 can(s) refried beans, spicy
seasoned ground meat
queso quesadilla or mozarella
lettuce, shredded
sour cream
tomato, diced
olives
hot sauce

Steps:

1. Cook up your meat & add seasoning while cooking. Drain grease off and then add your tomatoes and jalapeno's.
2. Heat up your beans in a pan till they are nice and hot. Get your tostadas and smear on a tablespoon or more of beans then top with meat mixture.
3. Now, layer all the other goodies....I go with cheese first because I want it to melt into the meat. Then, lettuce, sour cream, tomatoes, olives, a little more cheese and then some hot sauce.
4. Don't let these fool you. They are very filling and will serve as a meal. At least they do in our house. Now my husband has a couple of them but I am good with just one. Splurge and get some Mexican Sangria (non-alcoholic) or Mexican pop from your local Mexican restaurant...always fun to serve with it.
5. Here is the seasoning I use. Just in case you are looking around for it you'll have a picture.
