Last week I shared my favorite Mexican Chicken Lime Soup recipe using Tyson Grilled & Ready Chicken. Today I wanted to share another recipe that would be great for your Cinco de Mayo festivities – Chicken Tostadas.
Like my soup, this recipe is packed with flavor but easy on the waist line. It’s quite simple to adapt those calorie laden Mexican recipes and make them better for you. For this recipe, I choose cheese made with 2% milk and pick up low fat sour cream for my husband. In place of refried beans, I use hearty black beans. Plus with all white meat chicken, lettuce, fresh pico de gallo and creamy avocado, this meal is flavor intense! I promise, you’ll never miss all those extra calories! Plus, you’ll love the fact that you can put this together in a flash. It’s the perfect weeknight meal…especially since Cinco de Mayo falls on a Tuesday this year!
With Tyson Grilled & Ready Chicken, you simply heat and serve. It’s fully cooked and ready when you need it. If you have your pico de gallo ready ahead of time, you’ll have dinner on the table in minutes. This is one of those meal where it’s really just a matter of putting everything out and letting everyone assemble their own tostada.
