List of Ingredients




2 pkg. Tostada Shells (Found with the tortillas)
2 pkg. Taco Seasoning divided
1 lb. Ground Beef
3/4 cup Water
1 can (15 oz) Refried Beans
1/2 cup Sour Cream
1 cup thinly sliced Green Onions including tops
2 cups (8 oz) White or Yellow Cheese shredded
Optional Garnishes: diced Avocado, chopped Tomatoes, Pace® mild or medium Salsa

Recipe



In a small bowl, combine sour cream with 2 teaspoons Taco Seasoning from one package. Cover and refrigerate. Combine the remaining seasoning mix from the opened package with the refried beans and heat in a saucepan. Add water (approximately 1/3 cup) to reach a spreadable consistency.
In a large skillet, brown ground beef until crumbly; drain fat. Add the second package of Taco Seasonings, water and mix thoroughly. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 10 minutes.
Place tostada shells on a baking sheet in a single layer. Spread with 2 tablespoons bean mixture. Top with green onions and shredded cheese. Place another tostada shell on top of cheese and spread with 2 tablespoons beef mixture. Repeat with green onions and cheese. Heat for 3-5 minutes or until cheese melts in an oven preheated to 375 degrees F.
Top each Tostada with a dollop of the taco seasoned sour cream. Garnish with diced avocado, chopped tomatoes or salsa, if desired.
