Ingredients

• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 lb ground beef chunk
• 1 large white onion, minced
• Kosher salt
• 1- 1 1/2 tsp chipotle chile powder
• 10 oz can Mexican-style diced tomatoes with green chiles

Directions

1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, half the minced onion, 1 tsp salt and the chipotle chile powder; cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the meat is browned and the onion is tender, about 7 minutes.

2. Add the tomatoes, beans and zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is just tender, about 6 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, toss the coleslaw mix, lime juice, salt and pepper to taste in a bowl.

4. Divide the tostadas among plates and spoon the beef mixture on top. Top with the cheese, slaw and the remaining minced onion. Serve with lime wedges.
