Vibrant veggie-loaded nachos with flavorful spices atop crispy pita bread for a delicious Mexican fiesta.
Ingredients:
  • 4 large wholemeal pita bread (or 2 wholemeal Lebanese bread)
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 red capsicum, seeded, sliced
  • 400g can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 0.63 gm ground cumin
  • 1 long red chilli, seeded and finely chopped
  • 44.40 gm salt-reduced tomato paste
  • salt and cracked black pepper
  • 120g tasty cheese
  • 3 roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
  • 2 tsp finely chopped coriander
  • 2 avocados, mashed
  • 120g sour cream
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C. Tear the pita bread into large pieces, place on a baking tray, and bake for 6-8 minutes until crisp. Set aside once done.
  • 1. Heat a saucepan over medium heat and coat with oil spray. Sauté the onion and capsicum for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in kidney beans, cumin, chili, tomato paste, and 1/2 cup (125ml) water. Simmer for 5 minutes until most of the liquid evaporates. Remove from heat.
  • Arrange the pita pieces on a spacious oven-safe serving plate. Layer on the kidney bean mixture, then generously sprinkle with cheese. Bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese is perfectly melted.
  • Combine the chopped tomatoes with fresh coriander and leave aside.
  • Serve the nachos generously topped with fresh tomato and fragrant coriander, creamy mashed avocado, and tangy sour cream. Enjoy immediately.
