Here, you’ll layer tortillas with two types of cheese and toast in the oven until melty for a flat, golden, crispy base. Then, you’ll layer on all your toppings—think spiced pork and sautéed veggies, homemade pico de gallo, and silky crema. Yep, it’s pretty safe to say these tostadas reign supremo.

Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Halve, core, and thinly slice green pepper crosswise into strips. Halve and peel onion; thinly slice one half. Finely chop remaining half until you have 2 TBSP. (For 4, thinly slice whole onion; finely chop a few slices until you have 3 TBSP.) Dice tomato.
• Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork* and Southwest Spice Blend; cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned, 3-4 minutes (it’ll finish cooking in the next step). TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out.
• Add green pepper and sliced onion to pan with pork. Cook, stirring, until veggies are tender and pork is cooked through, 5-7 minutes. • Add Tex-Mex paste and ¼ cup water (1⁄3 cup for 4 servings). Simmer until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Season with pepper. Turn off heat; cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, drizzle tortillas with 1 TBSP olive oil (2 TBSP for 4 servings); brush or rub to coat all over. Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer. Gently prick each tortilla in a few places with a fork. (For 4, divide tortillas between 2 sheets; toast on top and middle racks, flipping tortillas and swapping rack positions halfway through toasting.) • Toast on top rack, flipping halfway through, until lightly golden, 4-5 minutes per side. TIP: Keep a close eye on them—tortillas brown quickly!
• While tortillas toast, in a small bowl, combine tomato, chopped onion, and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Place sour cream in a separate small bowl. Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt.
• Evenly sprinkle toasted tortillas with Mexican cheese blend and Monterey Jack. Return to oven until cheese melts, 1-2 minutes. • Divide cheesy tortillas between plates and top with pork mixture, pico de gallo, and crema. Serve.
Ground Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.

Reviews from our home cooks
Although we were concerned that the Tostadas Supremo with Pork was going to be relatively heavy, we were impressed with the delicious flavor profiling including the spicy Green Pepper, Pico de Gallo, and Sour Cream, all which balanced nicely. Main comment would be it ended up being more like tacos vs. tostadas because of how much filling there was, but it's not necessarily a complaint!
Be careful as it is easy to burn the tostadas but the recipe is amazing.
I loved this recipe! Add some tiny fresh pineapple pieces to your tostadas to make them even more enjoyable!
The sauce and seasoning made the tostadas have so much flavor. With some extra toppings added from home they were a hit.
Tostadas should be "punched" with forks several times before cooking. I had several air pockets which prevented the pork topping from staying in place. Will order this again.
The tostadas get a little puffy so just watch that! These are delicious.
This meal is SO full of flavor! So delicious! Love the crispiness of the tostada. This meal is just so good every time.
These were DELISH! I've made tostadas for years the gringa way with taco chips smashed up. I loved having the actual tortillas on the bottom. Great tex mex flavor!
I kept burning the tostadas. I'll have to watch better next time. I also added a few diced Jalapenos in the tomatoes & onions for a bit of spice.
Messy but very tasty! I added extra sour cream and jalapenos and it was so good! My husband doesn't care for the crunchy tostado, so I didn't cook some of the tortillas. He had a "soft taco" style meal and he loved it! Success!!
