Natural Beauty and a FAKE

Sharon Lonon shared Veganurth's photo.
Natural Beauty and a FAKE beauty side by side.
Malala Yousafzai & Kylie Jenner just turned 18 - Kylie got a brand new Ferrari and spent $10,000's on plastic surgery and botox. Malala was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize, survived a gun shot to the face by the Taliban, opened a school for Syrian refugees and is inspiring education for kids around the world. What's upsetting is the media is only covering Kylie as "breaking news" and not mentioning a word about Malala's powerful strength and courageous passion to change the world.... Kylie is immortalized because her parents are rich, she shops on Rodeo Drive and gets drunk at parties.....
Malala is infinitely more beautiful!

NILS BERNSTEIN
Ingredients
For the spicy chicken topping:- 1/4 cup kosher salt, plus more to taste
- 2 pounds skinless, bone-in chicken thighs
- 1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes, drained
- 3 canned chipotle chiles in adobo, plus 2 tablespoons adobo sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of ground cloves
- 1 medium white onion, diced
- 4 garlic cloves, crushed
- 4 ounces fresh Mexican chorizo (about 1/2 cup), casings removed, crumbled, fried until almost crisp (optional)
For the tostadas:
- 16 small corn tortillas or store-bought crispy tostada shells
- Vegetable oil (for frying; if needed)
- Kosher salt (if needed)
- 1 1/2 cups Creamy Black Bean Spread
- Shredded iceberg lettuce, thinly sliced white onion, crema (Mexican salted cream) or sour cream, queso fresco, cilantro leaves with tender stems (for serving)
Special Equipment
- A candy or deep-fry thermometer
Preparation
Make the spicy chicken topping:
Fill a large pot with 8 cups water; stir in 1/4 cup salt. Add chicken and simmer over medium-low heat until just cooked through, about 45 minutes. Drain, then chop or tear chicken into bite-size chunks. Discard bones.
Meanwhile, purée tomatoes, chiles, adobo sauce, pepper, cinnamon, and cloves in a blender until smooth.
Cook onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until sweet and charred (you want more char than "caramelization"), 8–10 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and fragrant, about 3 minutes longer.
Add tomato mixture to skillet (it will splatter), reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, about 30 minutes. Add chicken and chorizo, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is well-coated and moist and liquid is reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes more. Season with salt, if needed.
Assemble the tostadas:
If frying tortillas, fit a large skillet with candy or deep-fry thermometer; pour in oil to measure 1". Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 375°F. Fry tortillas in batches until crispy, turning every 30 seconds, about 2 minutes total. Drain on paper towel-lined baking sheets and season with salt.
Spread 1 Tbsp. Creamy Black Bean Spread on a tostada shell. Top with 1/4 cup spicy chicken topping, then lettuce, onion, crema, queso fresco, and cilantro. Repeat with remaining tostada shells. Serve at room temperature.
