Well, I have some crazy news. WE ARE MOVING TO HOUSTON! Yep, I will officially be a Texan again. It’s a very bittersweet time for us. We absolutely love Denver and the adventures it brought us, but we will both always be Texans at heart. In honor of this move, I obviously have to celebrate getting back into the land of Tex Mex. And what better way to celebrate that than with a healthy tostada?
So what is a tostada, you ask? Tostada is a Spanish word meaning “toasted.” (See, Spanish isn’t that hard haha). Typically a corn or flour tortilla is toasted and used as the base of this dish. I decided that I wanted to use my fave tortillas (Flatout) for my healthy tostada. And Flatout now makes their crispy pizza crusts, which I knew would add just the perfect hint of crunch to this dish.
In other exciting Flatout news, Flatout Flatbread is now endorsed by Weight Watchers! If you read my blog at all, you know I’m obsessed with the stuff.
