This recipe sounds good. I am from Mexico and down there the only Chalupas that we know are totally different. The Chalupas we know are soft fry corn tortillas (hard fry corn tortilla is a TOSTADA) with different toppings, some times with or without spread refry beans, meat (pork or beef), chopped onions, salsa and sour cream, very simple but delicious.
