Whenever we make tostadas normally, we make them with refried pinto beans. It tastes great with beans only, but sometimes you want a little extra, and that is when we add shredded beef, Yum.
Here in this link, you will find the recipe for the beef How-to-make Shredded Beef. This recipe for the shredded beef can be made ahead of time and have ready for the week. Place in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.
By having the shredded beef already cooked, putting together the tostadas will only take minutes.
My favorite hot sauce for tostadas is a hot tomato sauce, and the brand is Chile Pato. The sauce can be found in the Mexican section of your grocery store. It comes in a yellow 7 oz can.
