Oven Baked Sopes W/ Zucchini-Corn Filling image

Got this recipe from Vegetarian Times. it says sopes are small round tartlette-like cakes made with masa harina the flour used to prepare tortillas. Instead of frying the sopes on a griddle, we've baked them for entertaining ease. Topped with zucchini-corn Filling or Pico de Gallo, they make beautiful appetizers or you can serve a trio of stuffed sopes as an entree. Zucchini corn filling is a ultraversatile filling works just as well in tacos, enchiladas and quesadillas as it does as a filling for sopes. The filling seemed to need the chili powder and I added some bell pepper. very simple flavor, and would be easy to spice up.

I love that this recipe is a healthier version of traditional sopes. The zucchini and corn filling is a great way to sneak in some extra vegetables. I also appreciate that the sopes are baked instead of fried.
