Super Nachos with Refried Beans, Cheese, and Jalapeños
These vegetarian "Super" Nachos with Refried Beans, Cheese, and Jalapeños are each topped individually and baked. They're the perfect appetizer to make for company and take only 5 minutes of prep!
chopped fresh cilantro and fresh lime wedges for serving optional
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place about 20 tortilla chips on the prepared pan and space out so they aren't touching.
Top each chip first with a spoonful of refried beans, then some shredded cheddar cheese, then one pickled jalapeño slice.
Bake at 375 degrees F for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and starting to brown, and beans are heated through.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice, if desired.
Notes
For a vegetarian version, make sure you use vegetarian refried beans (many canned versions use lard).
In a hurry? Instead of baking in the oven, you can assemble these nachos on a large plate and microwave them until the cheese melts and the beans are heated through (about 2 minutes, depending on your microwave).
