Chicken-Avocado Tostadas with Blue Cheese Recipe

Chicken-Avocado Tostadas with Blue Cheese Recipe

  • 2 cups bite-size pieces cooked chicken
  • 3 tablespoons Safeway SELECT Balsamic or Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons O Organics™ Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/3 cup crumbled blue-veined cheese
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 (7 inch) flour tortillas
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can fat-free refried beans
  • 4 cups packaged Eating Right salad mix (including iceberg lettuce, red cabbage, and carrots)
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 2 medium firm-ripe avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced
  1. In a bowl, combine chicken, vinegar, 1 tablespoon of the oil, cheese, onions, and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoon oil (make sure to oil edges). Arrange tortillas well apart on two 12- by 15-inch baking sheets. Bake in a 475 degrees F oven until crisp and golden brown (about 5 minutes; switch positions of baking sheets halfway through baking time).
  3. Meanwhile, place beans in a microwave-safe bowl; cover lightly and microwave on high (100%) for 3 minutes or until heated through, stirring once.
  4. To assemble tostadas, set one hot tortilla on each individual plate. Spread tortillas equally with heated beans, then top equally with salad mix, chicken mixture, tomatoes, and avocado slices.
