A Mexican classic with a Greek twist, these tostadas appeal
to children of
all ages. If you can't buy
roasted chicken ready made, use leftover chicken or cook
some according to
whichever method seems
easiest to you. Serve one burrito size tortilla or two of
the smaller ones
per person.

Total Preparation Time: Less than 15 minutes
Ingredients: Chicken & Turkey
Actual Cooking Time: No Cooking Required
Number of Servings: 4
Nutrition Content: Good Source of Calcium
Meal Type: Entree
Ingredients
3/4 lb. Plum tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup Black olives, such as Kalamata, pitted and chopped
1/4 cup Chopped fresh parsley
1 Roasted chicken, bones and skin removed, meat shredded
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Ground black pepper
2 tbl Red wine vinegar
3 tbl Cooking oil, plus more for brushing tortillas
8 Small or 4 large flour tortillas
2 cups (1/2 lb.) feta cheese, crumbled
Preparation
Heat the oven to 450° F.
In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, olives,
parsley, chicken, salt, pepper, vinegar, and the 3 tablespoons oil.
Brush the tortillas on both sides with oil and then put on baking sheets, overlapping if necessary. Bake the tortillas until starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the tortillas and brown the other side, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and top each tortilla with an equal amount of the feta cheese. Return the baking sheets to the oven; cook until the cheese is just melting,
1 to 2 minutes longer.
Top the tortillas with the chicken mixture.
