Fresh Black Bean Nachos

by

Black Bean Nachos

Whether you’re cooking for the Superbowl or supper, consider swapping your traditional nacho recipe with a healthier version. Frozen black bean burgers cut down on prep-time, and add protein and fiber without the saturated fat traditionally found in this game night favorite.

Instructions:
  1. Melt part-skim shredded cheese on corn chips
  2. Top with mashed black bean burgers, chopped tomatoes, and fresh avocado.
  3. Serve with tomatillo and traditional salsas for an extra flavor punch.
What are your favorite nacho toppers?

Mother-daughter dinner tonight! Another easy grain Mother-daughter dinner tonight! Another easy grain bowl. Broiled salmon takes 10-15 minutes. Put it over red rice (cooked in rice cooker while I put the baby to bed), and topped with cucumber,  avocado, toasted sesame seeds, seaweed, and wasabi with teriyaki sauce. Inspired by @skinnytaste and @heatherkjonesrd Seattle salmon.
