Tostadas

So, it is no secret that I love Mexican food. I could really eat it everyday. I had a craving for it today so I thought that I could try to make tostadas.

I bought the refried beans at Whole Foods, along with the tortillas that they make in store (they are so fresh and chewy!). Everything else I was able to get locally.
I made pico de gallo from fresh tomatoes and onions ( I would prefer cilantro in it too, but my husband hates it). I got the monterey jack cheese, lettuce and sour cream from vendors at the farmers market.

I put a little bit of organic canola oil in the pan and put one tortilla in for about 30 sec on each side till they were golden brown. After that you just put them on the plate and layer everything one on top of the other.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving. I will be posting what I made including my attempt at a real pumpkin pie (from a pumpkin, not a can!).
