Ingredients
- 1 large bag corn tortilla chips or homemade corn tortilla chips.
- 4 ounces shredded cheese (about 1 cup), combination of Colby jack and cheddar cheese
- ½ can black beans or refried beans rinsed and drained
- 1 cup corn kernels roasted preferably
- 1 jalapeño (pickled or fresh) sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes sliced in half
- your favorite homemade salsa
- 1 large sliced avocado or guacamole
- fresh lime juice to drizzle the nachos.
Instructions
Warm the chips:
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (176 °C)
- Line a baking sheet or oven-proof skillet with tin foil.
- Arrange the tortilla chips in a single layer, overlapping them slightly. Sprinkle some cheese all over the tortillas.
- Bake the chips for 5 minutes, or just until the cheese starts to melt.
Assemble and bake the nachos:
- Carefully remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle with a little bit of each topping.
- Finally drizzle some salsa and lime juice. Serve immediately.
Notes
Don’t use “thin” style tortilla chips. You want a nice sturdy chip to make sure that those toppings stay on the chip!
