GREEK ZUCCHINI TOSTADAS WITH TOMATO AND KALAMATA OLIVE SALSA
"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.

- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray both sides of the flour tortillas with cooking spray. Sprinkle a little bit of salt on each side of the tortilla. Using a fork, poke little holes all over the tortillas. This will prevent them from puffing up in the oven. Place on a large baking sheet and bake for 4-5 minutes, then turn tortillas over, and bake for 3-5 minutes longer until the tortillas are crisp and light brown. Set aside.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Brush the zucchini and corn lightly with olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Place zucchini and sweet corn on hot grill and cook until charred and just beginning to soften, about 7-10 minutes. Remove from grill and let cool to room temperature. Chop the zucchini into pieces. With a sharp knife, carefully remove the corn kernels from the grilled sweet corn ears.
- Top each crisp tortilla with zucchini, corn, green onion, cilantro, and avocado. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top and garnish with cotija cheese. Serve immediately.
