Recipe: Healthier Yummy Black Bean Nachos

These veggie nachos are so easy and delicious - and a FUN weekend meal! Who needs meat on nachos??!

"Que Pasa" Organic Tortilla chips (these are only lightly salted)
1 jar salsa (I love HERDEZ Mild Mexican salsa - minimal ingredients)
1 can "EDEN" Organic black beans
2-3 green onions (chopped)
low fat real cheese (optional



Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Lay out the tortilla chips on the baking sheet.Rinse the beans well in a strainer and place in a saucepan along with the salsa and simmer for 5-10 minutes to allow the beans to soak up all the flavour from the salsa. Pour the hot mixture over the tortilla chips. Sprinkle with cheese (optional) and sprinkle the chopped green onions over top (you can use fresh chives as well -but very important for the flavour!) Bake until the cheese is melted through and the chips become more golden in colour. (it won't take long as the mixture was already hot) If you like cilantro - add some on top!
Enjoy!!
