Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.

  2. Arrange as many tortillas as will fit on the baking sheet without overlapping. (I can get 6 on mine - if you need more than that, bake in batches or bake two sheets at a time, rotating halfway through).

  3. Brush both sides of the tortillas lightly with oil and sprinkle with salt.

Chef's Notes

Notes
It’s ok if they’re slightly soft as long as they’re browned. They will crisp up even more as they cool.
Nutritional calculations are estimates, and include only the tortillas, oil and salt. Toppings will vary. 
Store leftover shells in a sealed airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. I usually just toss them into a Ziploc bag and leave them on the counter. They don’t often make it through the night (because we eat them!).

Great recipe! These are way better than store bought. I used a cookie cooling rack to cook the tortillas, no flipping needed! Cooked them for 10 minutes and they were perfect!

I’m always looking for a way to change up our weekly dinners and these were perfect. They’re in the rotation for sure! We like them crispy so I did them for about 10 minutes total. Perfect!

Linda ★ 3.0/5

A quick and easy meal. So many different items you can use

Angela ★ 5.0/5

Thank you! I have always fried my tortillas. It takes up so much time and oil to make enough for my family. I remember trying to bake them in the past using a different recipe but it was a soggy awful mess. This way yielded perfectly crispy shells. My family loved them and I will make my shells this way from now on. Saves me so much time!
Note: I had to bake mine for 10mins.

Melissa ★ 5.0/5

I will probably never buy pre-made tostada shells ever again! I had to do them for about 10 minutes total but they were great and held up so much better than the pre-made.

Aline ★ 5.0/5

These were a quick and easy alternative to tacos, sometimes we like to change it up a bit and these were perfect.
