Nachos
- 5 cups tortilla chips I like Mission tortilla rounds because they hold up well
- 1/2 pound ground turkey
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 14.5oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 2.5oz can sliced olives
- 1 large tomato, chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion, chopped finely
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 cups low fat, store bought, shredded Mexican cheese or use whatever cheese you like
Avocado Salsa Verde
- 1 large Avocado
- 1/2 cup store bought or homemade chunky salsa Verde
- 1/2 lime, juiced
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
Avocado Salsa Verde
Mash Avocado in a medium bowl until smooth. Add the salsa Verde, lime juice, cilantro, salt and pepper. Mix until combined and set aside.
Ground Turkey
Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and ground turkey. Cook turkey breaking up the meat into small crumbles until no longer pink. Add chili powder, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Toast spices for 1 minute. Add water and black beans. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until all the water is absorbed. Pull off the heat and set aside.
Nachos
Preheat oven to 350. On a large sheet pan lined with foil, spray generously with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange tortilla chips on pan trying not to overlap. If there are any sections of the foil exposed, cover it with chips. Sprinkle 3/4 cup shredded cheese evenly over the top. Do the same with the ground turkey mixture, red onion, olives and remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Bake for 5 minutes in preheated oven. Top with fresh tomatoes, cilantro, and Avocado salsa.
