Notes

Can I make this ahead of time?
  • You can prepare the different elements of this dish ahead of time and store them separately until you're ready to assemble and serve.
How do I store leftover breakfast tostadas?
  • These don't store very well when fully assembled so I recommend only topping ones that will be eaten.
  • If you do happen to have any left, then remove the tomato and other fresh produce. Store the tostadas in a single layer in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
  • Reheat on a baking sheet in the oven.
