Easy and Best Shrimp Tostadas Recipe Out There
This shrimp tostada recipe is great when you're craving something cold to eat. It's made with shrimp, vegetables, with a touch a salsa.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs frozen shrimp I cooked/peeled them the night before.
- 1 bag tostadas
- sour cream
- 1/2 large onion
- cilantro
- 1 avocado
- salsa my favorite is this Valentina Mexican hot sauce
- 2 limes
- salt
- pepper
Instructions
- Cook and peel your shrimp. Cut into small pieces and then toss them into a large mixing bowl. (You can use precooked shrimp as well.)
- Chop up the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, in addition to the avocado. Toss everything into the bowl as well.
- Squeeze the lime(s) into your bowl.
- Season with pepper and mix all the ingredients! (We're saving the avocado for last so it doesn't brown too soon.)
- Place the bowl in the fridge to chill for about 45 min.
- Once chilled, chop your avocado, add it in, and season with salt.
- Grab your tostadas and spread some sour cream on them.
- Top your tostadas with the mixed ingredients you just made.
- Finally, drizzle each tostada with the hot sauce and enjoy!
Notes
- You can use whole shrimp instead of chopping it up.
- No shrimp? You can use crab or ground meat instead.
- No tostadas? Use tortilla chips instead.
- No sour cream or want to add something more? You can use guacamole or even a refried beans as well.
