Karam's Style Chalupas!
Chalupas are an excellent way to bring in the summer time flavors of fresh tomatoes and ripe Haas avocados!
Have you ever heard of Chalupas - Karam's Style? When I was growing up in Texas my family would eat Mexican food at a very popular tourist spot called "Karam's Mexican Dining Room" located on 121 N. Zarzamora Street near downtown San Antonio! Ralph and Josephine Karam founded the restaurant in November 1946 which previously was the site of an old Chinese grocery. It was a sad day in 2008 when the restaurant closed to make way for a new Walgreens to take over the site.
Karam's offered several choices when ordering chalupas. What I like to prepare is Guacamole Chalupas with Salad. Basically, it all starts with a fried corn tortilla, a layer of refried beans, a layer of slightly melted cheddar cheese, then a layer of guacamole, chopped tomato and finely shredded iceberg lettuce!
