Black Bean Tostada's

I got this out of a grocery stand cookbook done by Betty Crocker.  I love this meal so much.  It is healthy and easy and makes a good left over for lunch the next day. It also makes a great freezer meal!

1 Package flat, hard Tostada shells.

Cook & Drain –

                1 lb. Ground beef or ground turkey

                ½ cup onion, chopped

Stir in 1 can (10 oz.) chopped tomatoes and green chili’s, undrained. I sometimes blend up the tomatoes in a magic bullet so my kids do not know they are there.  I will also add other pureed veggies like Carrots.

Heat to boiling, then reduce heat.

Simmer uncovered about 10 minutes or until liquid is evaporated. 

Stir in 1 can (15 oz.) black beans, rinsed and drained

***For freezer meal let cool and freeze in Ziploc bag and freeze flat.  When ready to prepare, thaw, warm up and serve on shell with toppings.***

Heat through.  

Top tostada shells with bean mixture, lettuce tomato, cheese and sour cream.
