Ingredients
  

1 bag of organic tortilla chips (about 12 oz)

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 medium avocado, diced

1 cup fresh corn kernels (from 2 ears of corn or frozen)

1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (seeds removed for less heat)

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream

1 lime, juiced

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Pickled jalapeños or hot sauce for extra heat

Instructions
 

Prepare the Corn: If using fresh corn, bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the corn and cook for about 5 minutes until tender. Drain, let cool, and then remove the kernels from the cob. If using frozen corn, simply thaw it by running under warm water or microwaving it for a minute.

    Mix the Toppings: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, fresh corn, black beans, red onion, cilantro, and sliced jalapeño. Drizzle with lime juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine all the ingredients without mashing the avocado. Set aside.

      Assemble the Nachos: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). On a large baking sheet, spread out the tortilla chips in an even layer. Sprinkle half of the shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the chips.

        Layer the Filling: Spoon half of the fresh topping mixture over the cheese-covered tortilla chips. Add another layer of the remaining tortilla chips, top with the other half of the cheese, and finally, add the rest of the toppings.

          Bake the Nachos: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

            Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Dollop the Greek yogurt or sour cream on top, and add any additional toppings like pickled jalapeños or hot sauce if desired. Serve immediately, and enjoy!
