Nachos Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Spread the tortilla chips evenly on a baking sheet.

    Layer with Beans and Cheese

    Spoon refried beans over the chips followed by a generous layer of shredded cheese. Add sliced jalapeños on top.

    Bake the Nachos

    Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    Prepare the Avocados

    While the nachos are baking, cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.

  2. 5

    Mash the Avocados

    Add lime juice and salt to the bowl and mash the avocados with a fork until you reach your desired consistency.

  3. 6

    Mix in Other Ingredients

    Once the nachos are baked, remove them from the oven. Top with shredded lettuce, dollops of sour cream, and sliced black olives.
