Roasted Chicken and Zucchini Tostadas

Play beat the clock with these mini tostadas. Crisp one side of street taco corn tortillas under the broiler. Flip them over and top with a tangy yogurt spread, cumin-seasoned chicken-and-veggies and shredded cheese. Then just a few more minutes under the broiler and dinner is ready.
