Nacho Bake

Appetizers - Chips - -

INGREDIENTS

1 Big bag of BAKED tortilla chips (that means no fat for you - a good thing)
1 can of rinsed and drained black beans
1 medium can Mexican style corn or use about 1 cup frozen
1 small can chopped green chilies
1 small bunch chopped cilantro
1 or 2 ripe tomatoes chopped or try canned
2 large jars of mild (or medium if you like) store bought salsa

OPTIONAL INGREDIENTS

Package of shredded Mexican style soy cheese
Black olives - chopped

METHOD

Turn on oven to 350. Smash all tortilla chips right there in bag. Pour into a large mixing bowl. Add everything else.

Make sure that all chips have moisture on them, if they are not all covered use anything you have handy to get them moist - another tomato, some veggie broth, V-8, white wine, more salsa, sure even a little water... just make sure there is ample wetness to the chips.

Transfer to a baking dish, sprinkle with soy cheese, cover and bake for about 25 minutes.

NOTES

You can also make this in the morning then store it in the fridge until that evening, then just bake it a bit longer when you cook it as it will be cold.
