Cook Time: 30 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 bag tortilla chips
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1 cup salsa
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 jalapeño, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that your snacks are perfectly heated and the cheese is melted to perfection.
- On a large baking sheet, spread out the tortilla chips evenly. Make sure they are in a single layer to allow for even cooking.
- In a medium bowl, combine the drained and rinsed black beans with half of the salsa. Mix well to ensure the beans are coated in the salsa.
- Evenly distribute the black bean and salsa mixture over the tortilla chips, ensuring that every chip gets a bit of the flavorful topping.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the chips and black bean mixture. The cheese will melt and bind the ingredients together.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- While the nachos are baking, prepare your toppings. In a small bowl, mix the remaining salsa with the sour cream to create a delicious dipping sauce.
- Once the nachos are done baking, carefully remove them from the oven. Let them cool for a minute before adding the finishing touches.
- Top the nachos with the chopped green onions and jalapeño slices for added flavor and a bit of heat.
- Serve the nachos hot, alongside the salsa and sour cream dip. Enjoy your delicious October tailgating snacks!
Tips
- • For extra crispy chips, briefly toast them in the oven before adding toppings • Use a mix of cheese varieties like cheddar and pepper jack for more complex flavor • Let the nachos rest for 1-2 minutes after baking to help the cheese set • Customize heat levels by adjusting jalapeño quantity • Prep ingredients beforehand to make assembly quick during game time • Use fresh, high-quality salsa for maximum flavor impact • For a healthier version, use low-fat cheese and Greek yogurt instead of sour cream
