Happy Tostada Tuesday! In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, we are featuring a healthy twist on a traditional meal. Tostada is a Spanish word meaning toasted. Tostadas are traditionally deep-fried tortillas, and enjoyed with a variety of protein, veggies, and/or cheese. A quick healthy swap is to use baked tostadas and to use vegetarian black beans, as featured in Cooking Up Healthy Choices curriculum. This healthy switch cuts back on added fat and calories.
