Party Nachos With Black Beans And Corn Salad
- 1 pound lean ground beef Good Quality, no additives
- 1/2 cup salsa Plus Extra for Serving, fresh or the refrigeration required version, not the jarred shelf-stable kind
- 1 tablespoon Cholula Hot Sauce or your favorite brand
- 1 bag blue corn chips Organic No Salt Added
- 2 cups monterey jack Shredded, Cheddar, Queso Quesadilla and Asadero Cheese Blend, check the ingredients of the shredded cheese for unwanted additives
- 1/2 cup pitted black olives
- 1 avocado Medium
- 1 handful spinach spinach is one of those veggies that needs to be organic if possible, toxins can cling to it
- 4 small tomatoes or 1/2 Cup of Cherry Tomatoes, organic is preferred with tomatoes also
- 1/2 lime Juiced
- 1 cup feta cheese
- ground black pepper Sprinkle of
- Prepare the toppings. Chiffonade (cut into long strips) the spinach. Cut the tomatoes into quarters or halves depending on their size. Dice the avocado and squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lime over it and gently stir together. Crumble 1 cup of the feta cheese and place it and all of the above ingredients into small bowls or onto plates. Fill a small bowl with salsa and another small bowl with whole olives for garnishing.
- Drop a small amount of Avocado oil in a non-stick pan. Crumble the ground beef into the pan and cook on medium heat until it is slightly browned.
- Add 1/2 cup of the fresh salsa and stir. I use the raw onion and garlic in the fresh salsa as an assist so I don't have to add them separately. It's a little time saver.
- Add 1 Tablespoon of Cholula or your favorite hot sauce and sprinkle with pepper and stir.
- Pre-heat the broiler of your oven on the high setting.
- Spread a layer of the No Salt Added Blue Corn Chips on an oven tray. The blue chips add some great color to the dish, as well as being a little healthier.
- Sprinkle the 2 cups of shredded cheese over the chips evenly and place the pan under the broiler of your oven.
- After the cheese is melted and bubbly, spread the ground beef mixture over the cheese covered chips and put them under the broiler for a couple of minutes more.
- Serve each person a plate of the chip, cheese and seasoned beef mixture and they can choose the toppings to finish their nachos.
- Serve the Black Beans and Corn Salad on the side.
