Combine lemon juice, taco seasoning mix and garlic in resealable plastic food bag; add vegetables. Tightly seal bag. Turn bag several times to coat vegetables well. Marinate 30 minutes. Remove vegetables from bag; reserve marinade.
Heat gas grill to medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white.
Alternately thread vegetables on skewers. Brush vegetables with remaining seasoning mixture. Grill kabobs, turning once and brushing with reserved marinade mixture, until vegetables are tender (6 to 8 minutes). Remove vegetables from skewers.
Meanwhile, spread
2 tablespoons
refried beans on each tostada shell; top with vegetables and
2 tablespoons
cheese. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
VARIATION:
If you want to skip the grilling, prepare the vegetables as directed except melt 1 tablespoon LAND O LAKES® Butter in 10-inch skillet until sizzling. Cook vegetables over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until tender (6 to 8 minutes).
