Easy Tostadas

My crew loves Mexican style food so I try to make things different, yet basically the same :-)
-While trying to remain frugal!

Bake corn tortillas until they begin to bubble so they will crisp.
Brown ground beef or turkey or both.
Add seasonings for taco flavor- homemade or packet.
Place tostadas on plate and layer with:
lettuce
taco meat
cheese
chopped tomatoes
sliced green onions
sliced olives
and top with guacamole
and whatever other toppings that you may like!
Served here with black beans and Spanish rice.
(Spanish style rice can be whipped up frugal and easy with leftover brown rice and salsa.)
Total meal cost was about $5.75 to feed 8!
(some veggies were from the garden)
