Tostalada
- 1 pound Ground Hamburger Meat
- 1 package (about 1 Oz. Size) Taco Seasoning
- 3 cups Chopped Lettuce
- 2 whole Roma Tomotoes Chopped
- 1 cup Chopped Green Onions
- 1 whole Avocado, Chopped
- 1 can (14 Oz. Size) Refried Beans
- 12 ounces, weight Grated Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- Canola Oil, For Frying Tortillas
- 12 whole White Corn Tortillas
- 1 can (14 Oz. Size) Red Enchilada Sauce
- 1 jar (8 Os. Size) Sliced Japalenos
- 1 tub (8 Oz. Size) Daisy Sour Cream
- 1 jar (12 Oz. Size) Salsa Of Your Choice
- Brown your hamburger meat and add the taco seasoning (cooking according to instructions on the taco packet).
- Drain and set aside.
- Dice lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and avocado.
- Heat the refried beans either in the microwave (as I did mine while I was chopping) or over the stove on medium heat.
- If you purchase a block of cheese as I did, go ahead and grate your cheese (freshly grated cheese is to pre-grated cheese as warm homemade cookies are to Keebler Elf pre-packaged cookies).
- In a small frying pan, pour a couple of inches of canola oil and heat over medium to high heat until it sizzles when you toss in a drop of water.
- We are going to fry up those tortillas, but first, grab a plate and place a couple of paper towels on it to soak up some of the oil once you fry your tortillas.
- Also, make sure and use tongs, these puppies will sizzle once theyre in the grease.
- Using your tongs, place one tortilla in the oil and let it fry up for about 30 seconds, then flip to get the other side.
- Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Repeat until you have around 12 fried tortillas.
- Open your can of enchilada sause, japalenos, salsa, and sour cream.
- Pile it up!
- Fried tortilla first, then beans, meat, cheese, enchilada sauce, lettuce, tomato, avocado, and onion.
- Now add another tortilla, then beans, etc.
- Top with sour cream, salsa, japalenos, and sauce.
- Dig in.
- Yum yum.
