About Tostada

A tostada is a traditional Mexican dish consisting of a toasted or deep-fried corn tortilla topped with a variety of ingredients. Common toppings include refried beans, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cheese, avocado, and a choice of protein such as chicken, beef, or seafood. Sometimes it’s garnished with salsa and lime for extra flavor. The crispy tortilla provides a satisfying crunch while the fresh toppings deliver a vibrant mix of textures and nutrients. Tostadas can be a good source of fiber, protein, and vitamins, depending on the toppings. However, the tortilla is often fried, which may increase its calorie and fat content. Opting for baked tortillas and lean proteins can make it a healthier choice. With its bright flavors and customizable nature, the tostada is a delicious and versatile option for those exploring Mexican cuisine.
