Vegetarian Nachos
In this 8 Minute Meal segment for Good Morning CT, I make a flavorful vegetarian nachos dish that can easily be swapped in for a complete meal!
Vegetarian Nachos Recipe
Ingredients:
1 yellow onion, sliced
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 pound bag tortilla chips (we used ¾ of the bag)
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup diced roma tomatoes
6 ounces extra sharp cheddar, grated (about 1½ cups)
diced avocado
cilantro
Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 400°F.
HEAT a large pan with cooking spray or oil over medium high heat for a minute. Add the onions and peppers, and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, and add salt and pepper.
PLACE the chips on a large baking sheet lined with parchment or non-stick foil for easy cleanup. Spoon on the beans, cooked onions and peppers. Sprinkle cheese on top.
BAKE about 12 minutes or until the cheese melts. Add additional toppings: diced roma tomatoes, chopped fresh cilantro and diced avocado (or guacamole). Optional: Garnish with slices of lime. Serve immediately.
