INGREDIENT NOTES:
CHICKEN BREASTS:
- It includes protein and makes the tostadas satisfying. Chicken provides low calories and includes healthy fats. You may use turkey breast, firm tofu, or chickpeas as per your preference.
GALIC CLOVES:
- They include a strong aroma and depth to the chicken broth. Garlic improves the taste without increasing calories. Use garlic powder if you are not adding garlic cloves.
AVOCADOS:
- Avocados give a creamy texture and richness to the recipe. They include healthy fats and maintain the lean chicken. You may use low-fat cottage cheese as an alternative.
GREEK YOGURT:
- It reduces calories and keeps the mixture smooth. Greek yogurt has a tangy taste to improve the avocado flavor. You may use low-fat plain yogurt or vegan yogurt as another choice.
BAKED CORN TORTILLAS:
- Tostadas include a crispy base of toast and hold all the toppings. Baking makes them crispy and crunchy. Whole wheat toast is a great substitute instead.
