Tostadas
Tostadas are crispy fried or baked corn tortilla chips that originated from Mexican cuisine and are commonly served as a snack, appetizer or a base for layered dishes. They’re typically enjoyed plain with salsa or guacamole, or piled with toppings to make the loaded dish known as nachos. Nutritionally, they are energy‑dense and provide mostly fat and carbohydrates; a typical product contains 15.8g of fat per 100g, with only modest amounts of protein and fiber and limited vitamins or minerals. From a health perspective, these chips are often highly processed and not very nutrient‑dense — they can be satisfying for short‑term fullness but aren’t a good source of micronutrients or antioxidant compounds compared with whole food alternatives.
