These tostadas are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I usually make a big batch of chicken on the weekend, and then I use it to make tostadas, tacos, and other dishes throughout the week.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made these tostadas with tofu instead of chicken. They were still delicious! The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce was just as good as it is with chicken.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my tostadas didn't turn out as good as I expected. The chicken was a bit dry, and the sauce was too runny. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These tostadas were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best tostadas he's ever had. I think I'll try making them again with less chili powder next time.
