Black Bean and Beef Tostadas

post-title

You only need a handful of ingredients to make one of our family’s favorites. It's also easy to double for company!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans, warmed
  • 8 tostada shells
  • optional: shredded reduced-fat mexican cheese blend, shredded lettuce, salsa and sour cream

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat until no longer pink, 4-6 minutes; breaking up beef into crumbles. Stir in tomatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until liquid is almost evaporated, 6-8 minutes. Stir in black beans; heat through.
  2. To serve, spread refried beans over tostada shells. Top with beef mixture; add toppings as desired.
