Instructions
First, fire up your grill and heat it up to about 350 degrees.
Place the corn on the cob on the grill. Let it cook for about 5 minutes. Turn frequently.
Sprinkle some of the Sargento® Fine Cut Shredded Mexican Blend cheese on top of each tostada. Place each tostada on the grill and cook until the tostada is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Place 4-6 shrimp on each bamboo skewer. Spray with cooking spray and grill until just heated through.
Check the corn, if it is done (and slightly charred) pull it off the grill. If it’s not done leave it on another 3-5 minutes.
Take the corn off the grill. You can either remove it from the cob and use on top of the tostada or you can leave it on the cob and serve it as a side dish sprinkled with a bit of the Mexican Cheese Blend.
Now just assemble your tostadas. Here’s where it gets fun, let your kids experiment with different flavor combinations, mine love completely overloading their tostada, my son puts so much cheese on his you’d wonder why he bothers with the tostada at all!
