Chicken, Bean, and Cheese Nachos



I wanted a quick snack and while scouring my fridge I found all the above ingredients and I though NACHOS! haha. Instead of piling all the chips up and dumping everything on top so there are a bunch of naked chips in the middle I did them in a single, spread out layer. There are lots of other things you can put on nachos like jalepenos, sour cream, salsa, guacomole basically anything that sounds good haha. The sour cream and guacomole shouldn't be put under the heat but be added right before eating.

Ingredients:
Tortilla Chips
Refried beans
Shredded Chicken
Shredde Cheese (I suggest a blend of swiss and american but you can use monterey jack or just about any cheese you like)

Directions:

1. Lay chips out in a single layer on a foil lined sheet pan. Preheat oven to 400

2. Spread a small amount of beans onto each chip.

3. Add a piece of the shredded chicken to each chip. Make sure to press chicken into beans because beans act like a glue so chicken doesn't fall off when trying to eat them.

4. Sprinkle a small amount of cheese on top of each chip. This should be the top layer so it gets melty as everything heats up.

5. Place into the oven just until beans are heated through and cheese has melted. Make sure it doesn't burn.
