Ingredients
  • 1 spray(s) cooking spray
  • 1 tsp canola oil
  • 1 medium shallot(s), or 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 medium garlic clove(s), minced
  • 15 oz canned kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/8 tsp table salt
  • 1/8 tsp chili powder, chipotle variety, or more to taste
  • 20 item(s) baked low-fat tortilla chips
  • 7 Tbsp low-fat shredded cheddar cheese, sharp variety
  • 1/3 cup(s) salsa
  • 3 Tbsp cilantro, fresh, minced, plus extra leaves for garnish
 
Instructions
  • Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  • Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat oil over medium heat; then add shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until shallots are tender, about 5 minutes. Add beans, salt and chile powder; mash with back of spoon or potato masher to make a pulpy mixture. Remove from heat; set aside.
  • Place tortilla chips on a rimmed baking sheet. Spoon bean mixture over top and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Remove from oven and spoon salsa over top; immediately sprinkle with cilantro. Yields five topped chips per serving.
