Smoky Shrimp Tostadas with Chipotle Mango Slaw
I don’t know anyone who does not love Mexican food. It has gone mainstream! Nowadays, you can really find all sorts of Mexican ingredients all over the U.S. One thing I have noticed is that the flour tortilla has truly taken over and many people have forgotten about the corn tortilla. Corn tortillas have a great flavor and are much healthier than flour tortillas. One flour tortilla has 110 calories whereas one corn tortilla has just 50 calories! And of course, who can go wrong with shrimp, mango, and chipotle!

This was amazing! I added a little avocado for a garnish and a drizzle of fat free sour cream.
