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.

Overall, I thought these sopes were just okay. They were easy to make, but the flavor was just average.

The sopes were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if they had been baked instead of fried.

These sopes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better with a more flavorful filling.

These sopes were a hit with my family! The zucchini and corn filling was flavorful and juicy, and the sopes themselves were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I will definitely be making these again.
