This is a quick and easy way to brighten up a boring weekday evening. Looks like you put some effort into it, and it is bound to bring a smile on your loved ones face. All you need is a bag of tortilla chips in the pantry, any kind of grated cheese and you can put together a quick nacho dish with any toppings of your choice. I used regular and blue corn tortilla chips. The black ones are the blue corn chips, and they are not burnt :)
Tortilla Chips
Tomato - 1
Onion - 1/2
Cilantro - a few sprigs
Store bought pesto or marinara sauce - 1/2 cup (Optional)
Jalapeños - 1 to 2 (Fresh or pickled)
Kidney beans or refried beans - 1/2 cup
Shredded Mexican cheese blend - 1/2 cup
Salt and pepper to taste
Cumin powder - 1 tbsp
Garlic powder - 1 tbsp
Slice the Jalapeños into thin rounds. Chop the Onions, tomatoes and cilantro.
In an oven proof baking pan, spray with some non-stick cooking spray and spread the tortilla chips in a single layer. Top with the kidney beans, chopped tomato, onion, Jalapeños, marinara or pesto sauce, salt and pepper, cumin and garlic powder and the cheese.
Pop this under the broiler for a couple minutes until the cheese melts.
Top with fresh cilantro and serve.
Top with Guacamole, sour creme or any additional toppings of your choice.
