Directions
Step 1
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and lightly fry each gluten-free corn tortilla for about 1-2 minutes per side until crispy and golden. Remove from heat and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.

In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, lime juice, red onion, cilantro, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a creamy tuna salad.
Step 3
Prepare the toppings by slicing or mashing the avocado and dicing the tomato.
Step 4
Assemble the tostadas by spreading avocado (mashed or sliced) evenly over each crispy tortilla. Top with a generous portion of the tuna salad.
Step 5
Garnish each tostada with diced tomato and additional cilantro, if desired. Drizzle with hot sauce for an extra kick.
Step 6
Serve the gluten-free tuna tostadas immediately for the best texture and flavor.
