This is such a light, refreshing, yet filling meal, perfect for your health conscious days! I was really craving a tostada but I didn’t want a traditional Mexican one, so of course my mind starting thinking about how I can create a fusion twist but still get the same flavor and taste to satisfy what I am looking for. And the Mediterranean tostada was born! It’s guilt free, but also tastes so good that you won’t even realize it’s actually healthier for you!

Here’s a few tips to make these the best tostadas ever:
- I used the Siete Almond Flour tortillas baked in the oven for these tostadas
- I used both oregano and Za’atar seasoning to add some flavor to the mixture but you can omit the Za’atar if you don’t have any
- I slathered a layer of my Beet Hummus on the tostada but feel free to get creative and use any hummus of your choice
- For a little added spice, feel free to top with a pepperoncini
This recipe is a quick and easy one bursting with flavor! I promise you won’t want to miss out on it! I hope you guys will give this one a try and love it as much as I do! Happy eating, friends!
