Notes
If you can't find store-bought tostada shells where you live, make your own at home. Place corn tortilla in a 400 degrees F oven for 4 minutes. Turn and bake for an additional 4 minutes until hard and crispy.
Add protein - ground beef, cooked chicken, tuna, or scrambled eggs.
Store the guacamole and the tostadas separately, or the tostadas will get soggy.
