Chicken Tostadas

Yum

January 30, 2013 by Jodi + Leave a Comment

This post is going to be short and sweet.  It’s late and I’m really tired so let’s get right down to business here.

These chicken tostadas are absolutely scrumptious!  We devoured them the other night and honestly, we all could have eaten a second one, there just wasn’t enough chicken left.  One of my favorite things at Costco is their rotisserie chickens.  They make life so simple and for recipes like this they save time and work wonders!

Honestly, these were fabulous and I can’t wait to make them again.
