Macho Nachos

Published: 02/02/2010 by Paula dean

Ingredients:
1 can refried beans
1 large bag white corn tortilla chips
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can chili (recommended Hormel) or your favorite chili recipe
1 cup shredded Pepper Jack cheese
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 cup green onion, chopped
1 tomato, diced
1 jalapeno sliced

Directions
Have all ingredients prepared and ready to assemble nachos.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

In a small saucepan on low, heat refried beans until they are loose enough to spoon onto nachos. On a large oven proof platter, spread out tortilla chips and quickly put a teaspoon of hot refried beans on each chip. Working quickly, sprinkle with onions, Jack cheese, and jalapeno slices. Spoon on chili and top that with Cheddar cheese. Repeat this layering process until ingredients are used up. Place chips in the oven at 350 degrees until cheese has melted. Remove from oven and place on a trivet or heatproof surface. Top nachos with sour cream, green onions, diced tomato and jalapeno slices and serve hot.
