For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of chili powder to the beef mixture while it's cooking. Feel free to customize the toppings to your liking! Consider adding sour cream, guacamole, salsa, or jalapenos. To make ahead, you can cook the beef mixture and prepare the toppings in advance. Store them separately in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, simply bake the tortillas and assemble the tostadas. For spicier tostadas, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the ground beef mixture.
