I have never actually made Chalupas before, and this was an easy dinner. We probably could have used some more heat, maybe used fresh jalapenos instead of pickled. I did spread the kids chalupas before I added the jalapeno, although after tasting them, I probably could have saved myself the trouble. I couldn't find pimentos at the store, and forgot to pick up monterey jack, so I left out the first and subbed cheddar cheese for the second. :) Also, another name for Chalupa shells (and the name they go by most frequently down here) is tostada. Thank you for posting, made for ZWT4.
