About Corn tostada
A corn tostada is a crisp, flat tortilla, typically made from ground corn, that serves as the base for a variety of toppings. Originating from Mexican cuisine, it’s a versatile dish celebrated for its bold flavors and satisfying crunch. Common toppings include refried beans, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, cheese, and sometimes protein like chicken or seafood. Nutritionally, a tostada can be a good source of fiber and essential vitamins if loaded with fresh vegetables and lean proteins. However, it’s important to consider that tostadas are often fried, increasing their fat and calorie content. When made with baked corn tortillas and nutrient-rich toppings, it can be a healthier alternative. This dish is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities, and can be tailored to fit various dietary preferences. Corn tostadas combine texture, taste, and tradition into one delightful bite.
