Foodie Friday

Enchilada Nachos

If you like loaded nachos, you'll love this dish from Simply Organic.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 can (15 ounces) refried beans
1 packet Simply Organic Enchilada Sauce Mix
1 cup water
8 ounces tomato sauce
8 cups tortilla chips (approximately a 7-ounce bag)
2 cups shredded Organic Valley Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1 cup diced fresh tomatoes
fresh jalapeno slices (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Warm oil in a skillet over medium heat. Spread refried beans out in skillet. Fry 5 to 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a saucepan on medium heat, whisk together Simply Organic Enchilada Sauce Mix, water and tomato sauce. Bring to a simmer, then decrease heat and cook while beans fry.

Pile tortilla chips on a large, ovenproof platter. Top with refried beans, enchilada sauce, cheese, tomatoes, and jalapenos. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes or until cheese has melted.

Top with sour cream, green onions, and black olives. Use more chips if needed.
