Ingredients

  • 2 Ole Xtreme Wellness! Keto Zero Carb Street Taco Flour Tortillas
  • 1/4 cup Refried Black Beans
  • 2 tablespoons Reduced Fat Shredded Cheddar
  • 1/4 cup Enchilada Sauce
  • 2 Whole Large Eggs
  • Cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bake or air fry the tortillas until slightly browned and crisp on the edges. For air frying, cook at 400°F for about 7 minutes, tossing every 2–3 minutes to ensure even crispness.
  2. Step 2: Place the crisped tortillas on a plate and spread 2 tablespoons of refried black beans evenly over each. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar on top of the beans.
  3. Step 3: Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray. Spoon 2 tablespoons of enchilada sauce onto one side of the skillet and the remaining 2 tablespoons onto the other side.
  4. Step 4: Allow the enchilada sauce to heat until it starts to bubble, then reduce the heat to medium. Crack one egg over each side of the skillet where the sauce is heated. Cover and cook the eggs until they reach your desired doneness. For a firmer yolk, carefully flip the eggs before finishing cooking.
  5. Step 5: Carefully transfer each enchilada egg onto the prepared tortillas. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, add diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of smoked paprika to the beans before spreading them on the tortillas.
  • You can substitute the refried black beans with refried pinto beans if preferred.
  • Try topping with avocado slices or a dollop of Greek yogurt for a creamy contrast.
  • If you don’t have Ole Xtreme Wellness tortillas, any low-carb or traditional flour tortillas will work well, just adjust cooking time to achieve desired crispness.

Storage

These tostadas are best enjoyed fresh to keep the tortillas crisp. If you have leftovers, store the components separately: keep the cooked eggs and enchilada sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, and the tortillas wrapped in foil. Reheat the eggs gently in a skillet and warm the tortillas in an oven or toaster oven to re-crisp.

How to Serve

Two tostadas are shown on a white plate with a white marbled texture background. Each tostada has a base layer of light brown, crispy flatbread topped with a spread of dark brown refried beans. On top of the beans is a sprinkling of shredded pale yellow cheese. The main layer on top is a fried egg, cooked with white edges and a runny golden yolk leaking out slightly. A reddish-orange sauce is drizzled over the eggs. Fresh green cilantro leaves are scattered on top, adding a bright color contrast. In the background on the top part of the plate, there is a small pile of dark blackberries, deep blue blueberries, and red strawberry pieces. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular flour tortillas instead of keto tortillas?

Yes, regular flour tortillas work well. Just adjust the baking or air frying time to ensure they become crisp without burning.

How do I make sure the eggs don’t stick to the skillet?

Lightly coating the skillet with non-stick spray or a small amount of oil before heating the enchilada sauce helps prevent the eggs from sticking and makes flipping easier.
