Layered Tostadas

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 4 corn tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 avocado
  • 1/2 pound pork sausage/mild or spicy
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • fresh spinach leaves
  • 4 eggs
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook sausage over medium heat until browned and crumbly, drain on a paper towel, set aside. Heat the oil over medium-high heat and cook each tortilla until brown and crispy – 2 – 3 minutes, turn frequently, drain on a paper towel. Smash ripe avocado with a fork and spread 1/4 on each tortilla, top with spinach, cheese and sausage. Cook eggs sunny-side up or to your desired taste. Top the sausage with the egg. Salt and pepper to taste. If you have hearty eaters, plan two per person.

    You can easily customize; substitute chorizo or leftover pulled pork for the pork sausage, Pepper Jack or Monterey Jack cheese or for that matter, any type of cheese for the Cheddar cheese. You can also sprinkle with cilantro, if desired.
