These easy loaded chicken “nacho” tostadas – topped with cheese, tomatoes, guacamole, olives and jalapenos are a great way to take nachos and turn them into a main dish.
Loaded “Nacho” Chicken Tostada
Perfect for lunch or dinner with a side salad. To make this kid-friendly leave the jalapenos out. I made them with grilled chicken but they would also great with leftover chicken. More of my favorite ways to make loaded nachos or “nachos” are Jalapeno Popper “Nachos”, Greek Nachos and Loaded Nachos with Turkey, Beans and Cheese.
