Making Easy Mini Sheet Pan Tostadas is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Tortillas: Place the corn tortillas on a lined baking sheet. Lightly brush both sides with olive oil for extra crispiness.
3. Bake the Tortillas: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes until they start to get slightly crispy. Flip them halfway through for even cooking.
4. Cook the Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or turkey. Stir it in until browned and thoroughly cooked, approximately 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
5. Add Seasoning: Stir in the taco seasoning and black beans. Cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through.
6. Assemble the Tostadas: Remove the tortillas from the oven. Divide the meat mixture evenly among them, then sprinkle cheese generously on top.
7. Continue Baking: Return the sheet pan to the oven for 5-7 more minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Add Fresh Toppings: Once out of the oven, sprinkle diced tomatoes and shredded lettuce over the tostadas.
9. Serve Immediately: For the best texture, serve the tostadas right away while they’re warm and crispy.

That’s it! You’ve quickly prepared a delightful meal that everyone will love.
