Our Favorite Chalupas

Family meals are the best! One of our favorites is Chalupas. I make a sheet pan or two, place in the middle of the table and we jump in! These days, I serve with Mexican Coke in large glass bottles and Paletas (Mexican popsicles) for dessert. So much fun and so very good.

Ingredients:

  • 1-2 pkg corn tortillas cut in half and fried until crispy (or buy tostadas at the grocery store)
  • Refried beans (I place my leftover pintos in blender and pulse a few times, then heat or buy from a restaurant or grocery store)
  • American cheese, grated (I use a lot ot cover well)
  • Toppings- shredded lettuce, chopped tomato, sliced avocado, your favorite salsa, salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Place fried tortillas on a large sheet pan.
  2. Spread refried beans on each and cover with cheese.
  3. Broil just until cheese is melted.
  4. Cover with toppings and enjoy!
