- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil

- Saute onion in hot oil over medium heat in a large skillet 30 seconds or until tender. Add garlic and mushrooms, and saute for 1 to 2 minutes or until mushrooms are tender. Add wine, and cook 2 minutes, stirring to loosen particles from bottom of skillet. Stir in basil, marjoram, thyme, and asparagus.
- Place tortilla chips in a single layer on a baking sheet. Spoon 1 teaspoon mushroom mixture onto each tortilla chip; top evenly with cheese.
- Bake at 375u0b0 for 5 minutes or until cheese melts.
