Light BBQ Chicken, Cheddar & Pineapple Tostadas - Krafted Koch - A light and easy weeknight dinner recipe the whole family will love!

Light BBQ Chicken, Cheddar and Pineapple Tostadas are full of flavor and light on calories. Crunchy tostadas are topped with tender chicken, juicy pineapple, zesty BBQ sauce and melted cheddar for a filling and flavorful meal. I love a hearty meal such as these tostadas that are wholesome comfort food, but not nutritionally bankrupt. I particularly love the bits of cheese and BBQ sauce that bake on the edges and become caramelized.

After the last few weeks of indulging in fondue at The Melting Pot, cake and wine at the wedding and all of the other quick and unhealthy meals, it’s time for more easy and healthy meals like these tostadas. Along with some healthy meals, it is time to get back to the gym for some racquetball after work with my co-worker and volleyball in the evenings with the ladies. I wish my entire workout routine could consist of just playing sports.

I hate sitting at the gym on an ellliptical or treadmill grinding away hoping to get your calorie burn in sooner than later. When I play racquetball for an hour, time flies by and at the end I have burned close to 1,000 calories. It doesn’t get any better than that! Too bad I can’t find more people to play with. I don’t think it is a very popular sport with my generation thought, which is a shame because it is a great sport you can enjoy all your life. Have you ever played racquetball or an unusual sport that you can’t find people to play with?

    I have always wanted to go to The Melting Pot. We love fondue and now I seriously can’t wait to go!! Also, I am all for hearty meals, especially now that fall has arrived. Yours look so scrumptious. Yummy!

      Kathi, The Melting Pot is a must! We typically leave regretting the last dessert course because we are so full, but the cheese with bread and apples and the meats and vegetables in flavored broths with a plethora of dipping sauces are to die for! We also enjoy to fondue at home, but it is so much easier when someone else has to do all the prep work and cleanup! 🙂

    Definitely going to try these. I have a kiddo that doesn’t like barbecue sauce anything you recommend subbing for him?

    I have never played racquetball. Sounds like a fun way to workout!

      An Asian or Caribbean sauce such as Teriyaki or Jerk would be a good substitute for BBQ in this. For a picky eater you could just try something simple like honey mustard.
