Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tomatoes, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 yellow onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Kosher salt
Baked Tortilla Chips, recipe follows
1/2 cup black beans
1/2 cup pinto beans
1/4 cup black olives, chopped
1/4 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
1/4 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese
2 limes
3 tablespoons Greek yogurt
1 avocado, diced
Twelve 6-inch corn tortillas (preferably white)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Fine salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes, garlic, onions and half of the cilantro. Season with salt and set aside.
  • Spread the Baked Tortilla Chips on a baking sheet and top with the black beans, pinto beans, olives, Cheddar and pepper Jack. Cook until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
  • While the nachos are cooking, slice each lime into 6 wedges. Squeeze 2 of the wedges into the yogurt, season with a pinch of salt and stir. Reserve the remaining wedges for serving.
  • While the chips are still hot, scatter the tomato mixture and avocados on top, then drizzle on the yogurt. Top with the remaining chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Brush both sides of the tortillas with the oil. Stack the tortillas and cut the pile into sixths to make chips. Spread the chips out in a single layer on 2 large baking sheets and season with salt. Bake until golden brown and crisp, rotating the baking sheets once, 12 to 15 minutes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my nachos turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked the sweet potato chips.
