This is a great meal for singles and couples or as late-night weekend snack for teenagers. For me, this is two meals; plus I have leftover refried beans to use for something else later. I don't drain my Ranch Style Beans, but you may prefer to have your nachos drier. And yes, you could just dump everything together and cook, but it's actually better if you prepare and eat chip by chip.

Ingredients

2 serv.

dozen round corn tortilla chips2 -3 dozen
fat-free refried beans1 can
(16 ounce)
ranch style beans1 can
(15 ounce)
shredded sharp cheddar cheese↗1⁄2 cup
light sour cream↗2 tablespoons
pickled jalapeno peppers↗2 tablespoons
Tabasco sauce (optional) or salsa (optional)↗

Step-by-step instructions

1
Use a knife to smear about one teaspoon of refried beans on each chip. Note: You will use only 1/4 to 1/2 can of refried beans.
2
Place the bean-topped chips onto a microwaveable plate or dish. Overlap the chips rather than piling them up.
3
Pour the can of Ranch Style Beans evenly over the chips. Note: I don't drain the beans, but you may prefer less juice.
4
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the chips.
5
Microwave about 4-5 minutes.
6
Serve with chilled sour cream, jalapenos, and Tabasco Sauce.
