A Tostado Bowl

They say necessity is the mother of invention.

 

Maybe. When I found myself without any "baked" corn tortillas or toast to make a tostado, a light bulb went off, make a tortilla-less tostado, make it in a bowl. I have avoided Bowl recipes for some reason but this Tortilla-less Tostado recipe works great as a Bowl recipe.

 

While in my Tostado phase, you will see various Tostado recipes and the ingredients will vary slightly.
