Ingredients
| 6 | scallions (white part only), thinly sliced | |
| 2 | garlic cloves, minced | |
| 1 | med. | jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced |
| 1 | tsp. | salt-free Southwestern seasoning blend (optional) |
| 4 | cups | (about 28 chips) baked tortilla chips (such as Guiltless Gourmet) |
| 3/4 | cup | shredded, reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese (such as Cabot's 75% reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese) |
| 1/2 | large | tomato, seeded and diced (about 1/2 cup) |
| 1/4 | cup | sliced, pitted black olives (sliced into thin rounds) |
| 2 | Tbsp. | minced fresh cilantro |
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Meanwhile, coat a small skillet with cooking spray. Add the scallions and sauté over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add the garlic, jalapeño pepper, and, if desired, Southwestern seasoning blend. Sauté for 2 minutes more. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.
- Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Arrange the tortilla chips close together on the baking sheet, and bake for 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle the chips with the cheese and scallion-garlic mixture. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, until the cheese melts. Add the nachos to a serving platter, and top with the tomato, black olives, and cilantro.
