Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz thick-cut tortilla chips
  • 1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (sharp cheddar and Monterey Jack)
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 2 tbsp sliced pickled jalapeños
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • Sour cream, salsa, diced avocado, chopped cilantro, lime wedges, for serving

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread chips on a large rimmed baking sheet. Toss beans with cumin and chili powder, then scatter over chips along with onion, jalapeños, and cheese.
  2. Bake 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted and edges are golden. If desired, broil last 2 minutes.
  3. Top with sour cream, salsa, avocado, cilantro, and serve with lime wedges immediately.

Notes

These nachos are best the moment they come out of the oven. Letting them sit will soften the chips, so have all your toppings ready before the pan goes in.
