Baked Nachos

September 15, 2011

Adapted from Two Peas & Their Pod

Mexican food is one of my favorites. Especially in the summer when all the produce is fresh and the most delicious. These nachos were so good – no to mention beautiful!

Ingredients

oven baked corn tortilla chips (recipe)
2 cups shredded 2% Monterey Jack cheese
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 large tomato, diced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 jalapeno, sliced
1/4 cup sliced purple onions
1 cup roasted corn

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. To assemble the nachos: Place a single layer of tortilla chips on a baking sheet. Sprinkle Monterey Jack cheese on top of the chips. Sprinkle black beans over the cheese. Add another layer of chips and top with more cheese and black beans.
3. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until cheese is melted. Remove and top the nachos with the tomatoes, cilantro, jalapeno slices, avocado, corn and purple onions.
4. Top nachos with remaining veggies. Serves 2.
