Mexican Corn Tostadas are a delightful twist on a classic favorite. These tostadas feature grilled corn kernels topped with a creamy, tangy blend of mayonnaise, sour cream, and cotija cheese, all piled onto crispy tostada shells. The combination of smoky grilled corn, lime, savory cheese, and chili powder creates amazing flavor with every bite. Garnished with fresh cilantro and served with lime wedges for an extra touch, these tostadas are perfect for a quick and satisfying meal or as an appetizer.
