Method
Whisk together eggs, milk, salt and pepper, to taste; set aside. Melt butter or margarine in a skillet over medium heat. Add tomato, peppers and chili powder (if using) and sauté until peppers are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until eggs are just set, about 5 minutes. Divide egg mixture equally over the tostada shells. Place cheese, salsa and shredded lettuce in separate bowls so that kids can customize their meal by adding the toppings they like!
Tip

Tostada shells are sold in the grocery aisle with the Mexican foods. If you cannot find tostada shells, use taco shells instead.
