Having leftover Roasted Corn Salsa & Pickled Jicama after making these Fish Tacos, I created this delicious Mexican inspired breakfast to finish up the leftover stuff. As long as you have the salsa and pickled jicama does in advance, this breakfast comes together very quickly. You can even make it on busy weekday mornings.

The delicious topping of the tostada can also be used in a soft taco if you prefer, with some lightly toasted corn tortillas.

For those teenagers who are always rushing out the door with barely a bite, stuff a tostada or taco in their hands as they run out the door and let them eat their breakfast on the run. It’s better than them having no breakfast right!

Garnish your Breakfast Tostada with fresh tomato, cilantro, crema (Mexican sour cream) and queso fresco.

  1. Blog looks really nice. i did check it out when you shared the link few days ago but viewed it on my mobile, It looks very good on a big screen. Even your tostada pictures came out very good, looks very professional or rather like a magazine picture. Yummy tostada. I too have listed down tostada for this theme.

    • Thank you so much. It was before these depressing rainy days the last few days I was able to get good shots on a sunny day!
