Step-by-Step Instructions for Breakfast Tostadas

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread about 2 tablespoons of canned refried beans on each tostada shell and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake the assembled tostadas in the preheated oven for about 5-6 minutes until cheese melts and edges are golden and crispy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, coat with non-stick cooking spray, and cook 4 large eggs to your desired doneness.
Assemble by placing a cooked egg on each tostada and garnish with diced tomatoes, avocado, green onions, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve warm and enjoy immediately, adding optional hot sauce or salsa as desired.
