Pulled pork tostadas make a delicious, quick meal for easy weeknights or weekends!

There’s just something about pulled pork that makes my husband’s heart swoon. He smokes a couple of Boston Butts on his smoker every few weekends that is absolutely the best I’ve ever tasted. Ever. But, I make a pork roast that yields pulled pork that comes a pretty close second to his smoked version. If we have any leftovers, one way I love to use them is on these pulled pork tostadas.

So simple to just pull together for a quick weeknight supper or even a lunch, if you like.

I normally have the ingredients on hand, so once I have my pulled pork all ready, it just takes a few minutes to get these tostadas on the table.

They are so good, they really make me want to cook more than one pork roast just so I know I have plenty of pulled pork for these tostadas. There’s nothing wrong with that, is there?
