Step 1
Wash & small dice the tomato.
Step 2
Peel & small dice the onion.
Step 3
On a cutting board lay out 1 flour tortilla. Place the round tostada in the center. Carefully trace the tostada with a knife to cut out a small tortilla. (Don’t have a tostada? Use corn tortilla chips or bake a corn tortilla in the oven until crisp!)
Step 4
Heat a drizzle of oil on a pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion & sauté 2-3 min until translucent.
Step 5
Add ground beef. Brown the meat, breaking it up with a spatula 3-4 min, until mostly cooked.
Step 6
Stir in taco seasoning for 1 more min. Transfer everything to a bowl & wipe the pan clean.
Step 7
Heat the flour tortilla & queso cheese in the microwave until just warmed. (Tortilla about 10 sec & queso about 25-30 sec.) Lay the full sized tortilla on a flat surface & scoop in a layer of the meat mixture, making sure not to overstuff the tortilla. Add dollops of nacho cheese & top with the tostada.
Step 8
On top of the tostada, add shredded lettuce, tomatoes & a few spoonfuls of sour cream.
Step 9
Top with the cutout flour tortilla. Fold up all the edges & quickly flip over so the loose edges are facedown.
Step 10
Heat a drizzle of oil in the same pan over medium heat. Add the wrapped tortilla, pleat-side down, on the pan. Cook undisturbed until golden, about 2-3 min. Flip & repeat until golden all over.
Step 11
Transfer to a cutting board & slice in half.
Step 12
Serve with extra queso or sour cream for dipping. Enjoy!
