I love tostadas! I made these vegetarian by omitting the chicken. I purchased refried black beans to save the blender step. The cumin and chili pepper we perfect. I also added salsa, corn and green peppers to the top. Next time, I will try to use guacamole too. Very pretty and tasty.

SO YUMMY! I made these almost exactly as the recipe stated. (I sauteed the onions with the chicken as I dont like raw onions) I thought these were fabulous! And very easy! Would definately make again! maybe add some fresh quacomole next time!

I'm not a big fan of this recipe - I think it relied too heavily on the spices for flavor. Too much cumin and chili powder.

My family and I just finished this meal and we rate it 5 stars. Modifications: I used white kidney beans because that was all I had and simply mashed them with a potato masher instead of processing. I also cooked the onions with the chicken as per another reviewers recommendation. We didn't bake the tostadas again, but ate them "taco-style" after they were all assembled. We'll definitely make this again--it was fairly easy and took about 30 minutes to prepare.

My family loved it. I am not used to make chicken tostada this way, but it was well worth my time. Thank you for sharing!

These were good but nothing to get excited about. It was a lot of trouble for a pretty normal tasting dinner. Nothing about it really jumped out at me, although they certainly didn't taste bad. I just don't think I'd bother to make them again.

A delicious, nutritious and easy dinner that can be adapted to our household of vegetarian and nonvegetarian eaters. Made a few minor changes. Didn't mash the beans but just simmered drained beans with spices. Didn't put the tomatoes on before putting in the oven, as my daughter doesn't like hot tomatoes. This was great, thank you!

We LOVED this recipe. My husband said that this dish could make a repeat performance anytime. We used slightly less spices than it said which was just perfect. Thank you Jan.

I thought this recipe was really tasty. I am not looking for anything too unique, though, as my kids are little and still picky eaters. The only change I made was to add olives. I will for sure make it again!
