As a homemade tostada, these little tortilla bowls work well. Simply lay out all the fillings and let each person create their own. Refried beans, diced chicken, diced beef, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, avocado, guacamole, sour cream, and salsa are other filling options.

This recipe is one of the closest to my mother’s recipe. Unfortunately, I had no celery seed or celery salt, but I remembered that I had used Old Bay in the past & got rave reviews before. Sure enough, the first ingredient in Old Bay, is celery salt! I had forgotten what a delicious substitution it was! ~J. F.

1-23-2016 ~Great combination of flavors, colors and textures. In lieu of “salad seasoning mix” I used Jane’s Krazy Mixed Up Salt, tho’ I think many seasoning blends would work just fine. I really have no clue what “dill seasoning mix” is so I used fresh dill. I chose to add red bell pepper, with its sweeter, milder flavor than green pepper, and I omitted the carrots because we’re not fond of them. I chose to chop rather than mash the eggs. Very nice!
