Servings: 6 Adults
Ingredients
- 2 15-ounce cans whole kernel corn, drained
- ½ cup mayonnaise (Best Foods)
- ½ cup finely chopped red onion
- ⅔ cups finely chopped cilantro
- 1 tsp chili powder
- Juice of a lime
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons Cotija cheese or Queso Fresco plus more for topping
- 2 15-ounce cans refried beansI
- 16 tostada shells
- chili powder to season for topping, optional
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add corn, mayonnaise, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt. You can also add 2 tablespoons of cotija cheese or Queso Fresco to the corn mixture or reserve it for topping. Also, I usually sprinkle in some chili powder at this point because I like a little spice. Mix together with a spoon until the corn is evenly coated with all the ingredients.
- Heat up the refried beans in a medium sized pot or you can also heat it in the microwave in a glass dish for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until fully heated through. Set aside. I usually just use the stove method. Set oven to Broil.
- To assemble the tostadas, spread a couple spoon fulls of refried beans onto each tostada and top with a scoop or two of the street corn mixture. Broil the Tostadas for a couple minutes until tostadas brown a bit. Sprinkle with some cotija cheese and a dash of chili powder. Enjoy!
