Nachos
Ingredients:
Baked organic tortilla chips (1 bag)
Sharp (old) cheddar cheese, grated (1 cup)
Refried beans (Look for a canned variety that is suitable for vegetarians - lard can sometimes sneak in) or black beans (1 can)
Salsa (any heat) (1/2 cup)
Optional toppings:
Chopped green onions (2 onions)
Diced tomatoes (1 tomato)
Diced avocado or guacamole (1 avocado)
Shredded lettuce (1/2 cup)
Sliced olives (2 Tbsp.)
Plain yogurt or sour cream (1/4 cup)
Sliced jalapeno or pepperoncini peppers (1/4 cup)
Textured soy protein (TSP) left over from a meatless taco recipe
Leftover chili
Directions:
Spread nachos out on plate or cookie sheet in a thin layer. Grate cheese over top, and dollop the refried beans on tortilla chips around the perimeter.
Microwave about 30 seconds OR bake in oven for about 10 minutes at 300 degrees Fahrenheit, or until cheese is melted completely and beans are warm.
Remove plate / cookie sheet and add the rest of the toppings. Only add salsa and yogurt / sour cream after the nachos are warm enough, or the chips will get soggy.
Enjoy the free-for-all for most cheesy chips!
