Ingredients

  • 1 bag (12 oz) MASA Tortilla Chips (from MASA)
  • 1 jar (8 oz) Tienda Salsita Salsa Chile De Arbol
  • 1.5 cups shredded full-fat Mexican cheese blend (cheddar and Monterey Jack)
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup diced Roma tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh jalapeños
  • 1/4 cup finely diced red onion
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 cup fresh corn kernels (or frozen, thawed)
  • 1 cup chopped kale, lightly massaged
  • 1 lime, juiced and zested
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • Optional: 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat to 400°F (200°C). Use an oven-safe baking sheet or dish.
  2. Prepare Toppings: In a small bowl, toss corn and kale with a splash of lime juice. Warm black beans in a saucepan with 1 tbsp water to keep moist.
  3. Assemble Nachos: Spread half the MASA Tortilla Chips evenly on the baking sheet. Sprinkle half the cheese, black beans, tomatoes, jalapeños, red onion, corn, and kale over the chips. Repeat with a second layer of chips and remaining cheese and toppings. Sprinkle chia seeds and smoked paprika (if using) evenly over the top.
  4. Bake: Bake for 8-10 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Add Salsa: Remove from oven and drizzle Tienda Salsita Salsa Chile De Arbol sparingly, as it’s spicy. For a milder option, mix 2 tbsp salsa with 1/4 cup Greek yogurt for a creamy topping.
  6. Garnish: Top with diced avocado, dollops of Greek yogurt, chopped cilantro, and a sprinkle of lime zest.
  7. Serve: Serve immediately with lime wedges.

Tips

  • Customize: Add diced bell peppers or shredded carrots for variety.
  • Salsa Control: The Salsa Chile De Arbol is spicy; adjust to taste or dilute with yogurt.
