Breakfast tostadas

I neglected to get groceries (yet) this weekend, but sometimes it's amazing what a desperate cook can throw together from the bits and bobs left in the refrigerator and the canned-foods cupboard. And thank goodness for the microwave. Thanks to a friend supplying us with authentic Mexican tortillas, I had those in the fridge, awaiting their purpose in this galaxy. 
I fried the small tortillas in oil on both sides, then put them on a plate lined with paper towel. The rest was put together from the veggie drawer and my yearning to make this the Summer of the Tostada. My D. gave it a thumbs-up review, and we both polished off three, so this recipe was definitely a winner.
Breakfast Tostadas
Normally, two tostadas per person will likely be enough, especially if you heap on the veggies, like I did. Preheat oven to 425F.
Then, sauteed some veggies with cumin and a splash of hot sauce: a bit of red pepper, a bit of mushroom, a shallot chopped, added some canned corn kernels, and pieces of cooked potato (that's where the microwave came in; I cooked the potato while I was cutting up the veggies for the saute).
Next, swiped out the pan and scrambled some eggs (three eggs, with about 2 Tblsp of water and 1 tsp mixed herbs; was out of milk or cream because of lack of groceries).
Put the fried tortillas on a baking sheet, spread with some jarred salsa, topped with heap of veggies, followed by some scrambled eggs, then a few shreds of cheese.
Popped that into the oven for 10 minutes; turned on the broiler for 4 or 5 minutes (watching them the whole time they're under the broiler). Was delicious and nutritious and quite pretty too. They sort of looked like these pictured, but without the lettuce on top (I really need to get a camera if I'm going to keep blogging about food).

Those fried tortillas made the best tostadas I've ever had (even better than the ones I had in Mexico), so THANKS to my thoughtful friends for giving us those from the Mex-I-Can restaurant downtown.
Here's a link to a similar recipe, in case mine isn't that easy to follow (leave the salt out, though: it isn't really needed).
