    We make similar tostadas and love them. I do all veggies, hubs adds chicken:) We use the broiler to crisp up our tortillas too! I will have to make these this week, thanks for the reminder! They look great!

    Finally got a chance to try these. Everyone agreed, they are wonderful… a bit sloppy to eat, but excellent none the less!
