Plate of Nachos



One 16-ounce can refried beans
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup salsa, from a bottle, can or fresh
1 cup shredded Mexican Blend cheese
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
1 cup or more of yellow corn tortilla chips
• With a large spoon spread out the beans in a ring on a large microwave-safe dinner plate, leaving clear about 4 inches in the center of the plate.

• Spread the sour cream and then the salsa over the beans.
• Sprinkle about half of the cheese and then the cilantro over everything.
• As you build up the layers, be sure to leave the space in the center of the plate empty.

• Microwave on high for 2 minutes.
• Remove the plate from the microwave, pile the chips in the center of the plate, and sprinkle the remaining cheese over the chips.
• Return the plate to the microwave and nuke again on high for 1 minute, until the cheese has melted.
Cook’s tip: Use a pot holder to take the plate out of the oven; it will be very hot.
• Sprinkle on a couple pinches of chopped cilantro.
Serve hot.
