Ingredients

  • 1 bag tortilla chips
  • 1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
  • 1 cup diced red onions or scallions
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 can black beans
  • 1-2 cloves garlic
  • 2-3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 dashes ground cumin
  • 1/2 tbsp ground oregano
  • 1/2 lb. ground turkey

Cooking Instructions

Brown a few cloves of crushed garlic in a few tablespoons of olive oil. Crumble a 1/2 tablespoon of dried oregano into the pan with your hands and then add a few good dashes of ground cumin. Once this becomes fragrant, add in your drained but not rinsed can of beans. Bring to a boil and then let thicken over medium heat for 5-10 minutes.

To assemble the nachos, spread a layer of tortilla chips across a foil lined baking sheet (I'm fond of Garden of Eatin' unsalted blue or red chips, but I used Tostitos this time and it worked fine). Add your toppings, cheese last. If this doesn't look like enough, add another layer of chips, etc. Bake in a 350 degree oven until all layers of cheese have melted.

What to do from here is up to you. Some people like sour cream or salsa. You can add another sprinkling of lime juice and some chopped cilantro.
