Speedy Beef & Corn Tostadas

High Protein

A 445-calorie Lunch recipe from MunchInIt. Serves 2. Prep 10 min, cook 15 min.

Ingredients

• 4 small corn tortillas (approx 100g)
• 150g lean ground beef (10% fat or less)
• 100g fresh or frozen corn kernels
• 100g diced canned tomatoes, drained
• 2 tbsp Greek yogurt (plain, 0% fat)
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp chili powder
• 1/4 tsp cumin
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

1. Prep: Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Lightly brush both sides of the corn tortillas with a tiny amount of olive oil (from the 1 tsp amount) and air fry for 4-6 minutes, or until crispy. Alternatively, bake in an oven at 200°C (400°F) for 8-10 minutes. Set aside.
2. Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat on the hob. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned (about 5-7 minutes).
3. Drain any excess fat from the beef.
4. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
5. Add the corn kernels and drained diced tomatoes to the beef mixture. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the corn to heat through.
6. Divide the beef mixture evenly among the crispy tostada shells.
7. Top each tostada with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
8. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
