These Chicken Avocado Verde Tostados are the bomb!!! Try them with my Tomatillo Salsa…even better!
Living in Southwest, my family has come to love Mexican-style foods. We eat it probably 4 nights a week and just can’t seem to get enough of the flavors. One thing that I have recently started to love is a perfectly ripe avocado..specifically in the form of guacamole! I just can’t get enough.
I knew Wholly Guacamole made guacamole, but had no idea that they made salsa and my absolute favorite…the avocado verde sauce. It’s like green sauce, tomatillo sauce, and guacamole all rolled up into one amazingly scrumptious sauce. Seriouslly….I think I could eat this stuff with a spoon.

This is an excellent recipe for the summer!
i really like this recipe and it looks beautiful with all of the colors.
my idea of a 15 minute recipe is chicken on the george foreman grill, on a whole wheat tortilla with a pinch of shredded colby jack & a tbsp of barbeque sauce, with a side salad!
I WOULD LOVE TO TRY THIS RECIPE BUT i WOULD PUT A LITTLE MORE CHICKEN ON IT & A DOLLOP OF SOUR CREAM!
I like the idea of 15 Minute Supper. It is hectic during the week trying to find time to prepare a delicious meal.
I have got to try the Guacamole Stuffed Chicken. It’s looks so yummy!

I LOVE guacamole. My husband and I are thinking about moving the Southwest. I love reading about what you say about food there. For instance, I don’t know where I can find a good tostada where I live. YUM!!!!!
Love love love avocado’s!
I love this tostada recipe but I think I would replace the cabbage with lettuce. 🙂
You have to love quick and easy meals that taste great and are healthy too!
avocado plus fresh lime and fresh tomatoes //// you can’t go wrong ===== fingers crossed
I haven’t had tostadas since I was a kid and these look lovely! I really like the idea of using the purple cabbage instead of basic iceberg. You could use raw spinach or kale too!
15 minute suppers are great, as that’s about all the time I want to spend on making them!
This recipe looks delish! And I love that is seems pretty easy to make.

Printed the recipe going to try it this weekend & 15 minute supers sound wonderful especially when you work.

J
I love the thought of adding cabbage for crunch and color. and love the idea of only 15 minutes meals!
I would love to try the Chicken Avocado Verde Tostados because they are different. The concept of 15 minute suppers is great because it is convenient and a healthier alternative to eating out. With less time to prepare a satisfying meal, I can spend more time with other things.
This looks really delicious! I might sub out the cabbage though.
Your recipe looks amazing, and maybe a little messy too! But that’s a good thing.
I’d love to try this recipe. My family is huge Mexican food fans and I love how quick this meal is!
This is a recipe I will be trying. Thanks.
Those tostados look great! Can I have one?
the cabbage is a nice touch to the tostadas
This recipe for the Chicken Avocado Verde Tostados not only looks easy for a family friendly meal but it totally made my mouth water. Yum!
This recipe looks amazing, but I also like the idea of 15-minute suppers. Both my fiance’ and I work full-time, so it’s hard to get home and want to cook.
Being a very busy mom, the idea of a 15 minute dinner is very appealing to me! Especially for the nights we are all coming in late, but very hungry!
Yummy
The idea of 15 minute dinners is good. The reality of them is GREAT but they are scarce. I’d love to try this one.
The recipe looks amazing. I am a busy, busy mom so the quicker the better for me with dinners. 🙂
I love the idea of 15 minute suppers. Sometimes I don’t feel like making dinner because of the time it takes to prepare. I just hate spending a lot of time on dinner that gets eaten in about 5 minutes.
I could definitely use more 15 minute meals in my life! I’m always to tired after work, I never feel like cooking.
I love this recipe since it seems healthy plus delicious with the chicken breasts and purple cabbage. Fifteen minute suppers seem like a dream come true.
That looks delicious! The avocado verde was my favorite 🙂
The recipe looks really good
I love quick, easy weeknight meals, especially Mexican flavored. This looks great!
One of my first memories of having Mexican food was when I was in grammar school in the 60’s and ate at a Mexican girlfriends house. I’ve never forgotten that meal-it was so good! .This recipe reminds me of what we had.
The recipe looks delicious! Fish tacos are one of our staple 15 minute dinners – love them with some guac too!
This recipe looks amazing & what I like most about it is it would be great for my family because it would satisfy the meat eaters & the vegetarian needs in one easy meal. I usually have to make two different meals this would solve that problem!
I would love all my dinners to be 15 minutes.
that recipe looks amazing! it is similar to what i do with wholly guacamole. i pick up grilled chicken from the store, some cheese, some guac, and roll it into a taquito and fry it. super fast, simple, and yummy.
I haven’t opened up my Wholly Avocado Verde Salsa yet, but I’m dying to! I haven’t seen it in stores (I’m probably not looking hard enough), so I’m trying to find the perfect recipe to use it in….and man, this looks like a great way to use it! We haven’t had tostadas in a long time (which is weird, because like you, we eat Mexican-style dinners a few nights a week).
I love all of the colors in these tostados! I want to eat one tonight!! Yum!
we love hamburgers and fries.
I love this idea! I actually have some cabbage I need to use up & this is a great idea on doing that! 🙂
15 minutes suppers are a brilliant way to have family time after a busy workday!
This looks so delicious! I can’t wait to make these for dinner
That looks very good. Love to make quick meals.
I like the idea of quicker recipes but even 15 minutes at times is too long
I love this recipe. My family loves chicken tacos. I love the idea of adding some flavored guac to our menu. Who doesn’t love salsa verde!?
The recipe looks absolutely delicious.
15 minute suppers are the best, and this looks so good!
I wouldn’t have believed there could be so many quick, good recipes.
This recipe looks really good. I’ll have to point my wife to it.
Wonderful! I really need quick and healthy (and yummy) weeknight meal ideas.
There’s nothing better than being able to get dinner on the table in 15 minutes… that’s crazy awesome!
15 minute suppers is genius! Who wouldn’t want delish, quick meals??
The recipe looks really yummy. I might even try it with steak instead of chicken.
Why have I never made a tostado?!
15 seems like it’s overpromising even..but i do love guacamole.
this looks so good! i love mexican food!
The recipe sounds delicious, the only thing I wouldn’t include if I made this recipe is the purple cabbage. I know my family wouldn’t eat the purple cabbage.
These would be so great for a quick after work supper!!~
looks great
I like to keep cooked meat on hand. This way I can throw something together very quickly for dinner. The recipe ideas are endless.
the idea of 15 Minute Suppers. is just what I need
The Tostados look delicious and are so colorful.
I’d leave the chicken off to make it vegetarian friendly. I absolutely love tostados from the Mexican restaurant here, but I’ve never tried to make them on my own.
Your recipe looks tasty and easy to put together.
Looks delicious! Love guac added to almost everything. 15 min dinners are a life saver.
I love the idea of 15 minute suppers. I always plan for supper to be done around 5 or 6 but we usually don’t sit down to eat until 7.
15 minute meals – lifesavers!
This looks fantastic!! I love Wholly Guacamole!
This is a great addition for my menu
The recipe looks and sounds amazing. The only thing I would take out are the refried beans. Aside from that, YUM !
This looks good. I like the 15 min supper idea.
I’ve never made tostados ~ this recipe looks really tasty and simple. Its going on the menu for this week. Thanks!
My husband LOOOVES guacamole and I would like to try this recipe for him.
we love hamburgers and fries.
this looks very good
I love guacamole and find it to be an excellent addition to many dishes. I feel as though more people would cook at home if they could make meals in 15 minutes.
LOVE this recipe! In fact, think I’m going to make tonight for supper!
Not enough hours in the day, so 15 minute suppers sound perfect!
These tostados look great! I wonder if I could make something similar with tuna – my family is really into seafood.
All of these recipes sound delicious! I love Mexican food, and Wholly Guacamole makes each dinner special without all of the work. I love recipes that take 30 minutes or less!
Never thought of using cabbage for Mexican recipes. I have always used shredded lettuce and now I’ll try cabbage.
Hope to win!
This recipe looks delicious!
I can’t wait to try this recipe. My mouth was watering reading it. Good for the whole family! Thank you.
This looks like a healthy, quick and different meal idea. I like the 15 minute concept as we often do not have a lot of time for cooking.
I love the idea of 15 minute suppers, because I don’t like to cook and don’t have many ideas either.
My kids would love this recipe. So simple, yet looks so tasty. Thanks for sharing.
We love tostadas at our house! I like the idea of mixing the chicken with the verde sauce!

I love the Wholly Guacamole salsas. The medium is my favorite. Those tostadas look tasty and simple!
Looks great! Thanks for participating this week!
Tostados are a favorite in our house. I never tried purple cabbage on them. The cabbage gives it great color and is a nice change from lettuce. I plan to give this one a try!
Those look very tasty!
