For anyone who loves nachos, and is always on the lookout for delicious, easy, and healthy-leaning spins on the idea, this recipe is for you! Crisp from whole-grain blue corn chips, gooey from melted Jack cheese, and brightened thanks to fresh tomatoes, scallions, jalapeno pepper, and fresh cilantro, these nachos hit the spot. If you're in the unexpected postion of having leftovers, turn them into chilaquiles by adding a beaten egg or two and cooking it in a skillet. Be sure to arrange the chips in a single layer in the baking dish so there’s plenty of surface area for the toppings.
