{Party Recipe} Shrimp Tostada Bites

Jump to Recipe

You all know how I feel about mini party foods, right? Obsessed, really. There’s always a celebration around the corner that deserves a go-to appetizer. Whether it’s a birthday, a baby shower, game night, or just a festive dinner with the family, I wanted to share my easy recipe for shrimp tostada bites!

These shrimp tostada bites are an easy appetizer to make for a crowd, always the first to disappear at my parties, and quite colorful might I add! They’re one or two bites each so it’s perfect for mixing and mingling! This is a true year-round favorite for party appetizers in my house!

If you want to save time, make the tortilla rounds a day ahead and warm them once your layer of beans is on. I like to keep tortilla rounds like these on-hand to create easy last-minute party appetizers.

They can virtually be topped with anything (diced chicken and guacamole, for example) for a variety of delicious appetizers. To make the rounds, I used a 1 1/2″ cookie cutter. This fit a small shrimp very nicely but you can easily make whatever size your heart desires!

Make mini tortilla rounds!

I love the versatility of this recipe because it’s perfect to suit everyone’s tastes! Make it vegetarian by adding diced peppers and black beans, for example. I happen to love shrimp so these shrimp tostada bites are my favorite variation. Chicken or steak would be a great alternative as well.

Ingredients
