These are fairly easy to put together and a nice switch up from the breakfast classics.
Tostadas should be enjoyed any time of day and what a better time than at 1st meal!? Store bought tostadas make this a quick to assemble meal and finger-licking good one at that. You will literally have to lick those fingers as this is a bit of a messy one, but aren’t all the best dishes?
I mean just look at that! The best part of this recipe is it is jam packed with flavor. From the avocado spread, Oaxaca cheese, bacon, over medium egg, and then smothered in Verde salsa. Quite the savory treat! Oaxaca cheese is a Mexican cheese that you can find in most Mexican grocery stores. It is similar to mozzarella. A bit stringy and makes fantastic quesadillas as well. You can substitute mozzarella if you would like but if you can find it, I highly recommend it.
Okay, Let’s get started!
Easy Breakfast Tostadas
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 tbsp. butter
- 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 avocado
- 4 tostada shells I use Los Pericos brand. You can get at most grocery stores
- 1/2 cup Oaxaca cheese, shredded Can substitute Mozzarella cheese
- 1 jalapeno sliced optional
- 2 tbsp. cilantro, chopped
- salt
- pepper
- paprika
Instructions
- To start, get the bacon going. You can cook in a pan on the stove top, bake in the oven on a baking sheet, or in the air fryer. Oven- lay strips across parchment paper on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 400°.Air fryer- Cut the strips in half and air fry for 10 minutes at 360°.
- Preheat the oven to 400°
- Now prep and chop the jalapenos and cilantro. Remove the flesh from the avocado and put in a small bowl. Smash the avocado with a fork and add some salt.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp. of butter. Drop the eggs in and cook until desired doneness. I like mine over medium. Which takes about 4 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Assembly
- You can heat the shells or leave as is. I like to pop them in the oven for 2 minutes.
- Spread some of the avocado on a tostada shell, top with some cheese, an egg, jalapeno, and bacon. Pour on as much Verde salsa as you wish and finish with chopped cilantro.
- ENJOY!
