Tia Rosa's Tostadas Estilo Caseras

I found some amazing tostada shells last night at WalMart, which make great tortilla chips when you break them up.  They are great for controlling your portion size (once I open a bag of tortilla chips, they usually are all eaten in 1 or 2 sittings.)  If I use tostada shells, I can bring 4 shells to work in my lunch, break them up into tortilla chip size, and be happy.

The best part of all is that they are only 15mg of Sodium per shell!  They are the Tostadas Estilo Caseras (or Homestyle Tostadas Caseras), by Tia Rosa.
