Default Chalupa

What does this mean to you? I ask because I saw a recipe on a forum for
"Chicken Chalupas". It was a casserole that contained shredded chicken,
cheese, sour cream, cream of some kind of soup and a few other things. Some
of this was wrapped in flour tortillas like you might for an enchilada and
then a sauce was pored over it and baked. And I was like... Nope. That's
not a Chalupa!

So I looked it up. The one I am familiar with is apparently the American
one. Sort of like a taco but usually much larger and uses a fried flour
tortilla. Some places add sauce to this. That sort was listed at Wikipedia
but there is also a South American kind that said it was their version of a
tostada but was in fact very much like a sope. So the toppings were the
same but it was served on a thick corn tortilla.

But then there is this third recipe floating around and I have seen it at
several places. Can be done on the stove or in the crockpot and it is a
combination of pinto beans and pork! Says it is great to serve at parties.
And it is served with flour tortillas.

So now I am confused. What is a Chalupa to you?
