Having a tostado for breakfast is one of my favorites. I prefer it over the usual breakfast burrito. Maybe I just like having things that go crunch.
And this is easy enough to prepare since eggs cook very fast and the beans heat quickly in a microwave. The tostada shells can be warmed in a toaster oven or it can even be done on a griddle.
