Vegan Nachos
1 bag Tortilla Chips
3/4 cup Vegan Cheese
3/4 cup cooked Black Beans
1/3 cup Guacamole (1 ripe avocado + 1/4 tsp sea salt + 1 lime, juiced)
1/2 – 3/4 cup Chunky Salsa
Fresh Jalapeños and Red Onion, sliced, to taste
Cilantro, Hot Sauce (optional)
- Heat up the black beans with a pinch of salt and any desired spices (we suggest cumin, garlic, and if you’d like a kick, some chili powder).
- On to the guacamole! Mash your avocado and mix in the lime juice and sea salt.
- On a large serving platter arrange your tortilla chips and add on your toppings. Our team at VeganSmart chooses to put black beans, vegan cheese (which will melt over the warm beans or you can heat it up) followed by salsa, guacamole, red onions, jalapenos, and lastly garnished with cilantro and a tab of hot sauce.
