GREEK ZUCCHINI TOSTADAS WITH TOMATO AND KALAMATA OLIVE SALSA



Greek Zucchini Tostadas with tomato and Kalamata olive salsa image

"Ladies and gentleman, in one corner, we have Greek cuisine, fit and feisty, famous for their funky feta and tremendous tzatziki... In the other corner, trained with strict discipline the last two centuries on tacos, burritos, and enchiladas, Mexican cuisine, the crowd favorite. The bell rings and we're off... That's a haymaker from Greece, we're seeing a lot of olives and tomatoes on that one. Wait, wait... that's a left jab from Mexico, and tortillas are flying everywhere. It looks like they're both going down, folks, on the mat... but folks, we all are winners from this tie, as these Greek zucchini tostadas are better than any bout." Tip: Best way to mince cucumber? Quarter lengthwise, cut those quarters into cubes, then chop.
