This is sooo good! James will probably say this is his favorite of mine so far. The recipe is like I said; Healthy & Hearty. You can have it for dinner or lunch or a snack. Whatevs!
Hearty & Healthy Nachos
Things you will need:
Medium saucepan
1 cup of frozen corn*
1 1/2 cup of Salsa (mild, medium, or hot - your choice)
1 can of black beans drained & rinse
1/2 teaspoon paprika (spicy or regular-your choice)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 ground pepper
1/2 cup of shredded cheese** (optional)
1/4 cup of sour cream** (optional) James doesn't like sour cream, but I love it!
Warm tortilla chips (I like to buy white corn tortillas and heat up canola oil in a frying pan and tear them up and throw them in the frying pan for a couple of minutes and then lightly salt them - or you can just buy a bag of blue corn chips if you're really trying to go healthy.) :-)
Directions
1. Combine corn, salsa, beans & spices in saucepan over medium high heat until boiling. Lower heat to medium-low.
2. (optional) Stir in cheese and sour cream. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes; stirring occasionally.
3. Dip your chips in and enjoy
*If you want to use canned corn make sure to drain and rinse the corn and add a 1/4 cup of water to the pot.
** If you are trying to go vegan, you can either omit these (like I said, it's optional) or buy vegan cheese and sour cream at a whole foods store.
