Healthy Fajita Nachos
The scoop
You don’t always think of Nachos as a healthy food. But I have mastered recreating my favorite dishes into more healthy versions. This dish was inspired by mycrazyblondlife blogger. I took her version (which is fabulous) and switched out a few of things to fit our tastes and healthy preferences and it turned out wow!
This dish has the flavor of chicken fajitas which we love. I substituted organic multigrain chips for corn chips, and Greek yogurt for sour cream and went light on the cheese to lighten the recipe up a bit.
Ingredients:
2 Organic Chicken Breasts (split into 4 pieces)
1 Green Pepper
1 Red Pepper
1 Pablano Pepper
1 Jalepeno Pepper
1 Yellow Onion
Olive Oil
Taco Seasoning
I sliced every thing up in even sizes, tossed them in olive oil and sprinkled on the taco seasoning. Then put them in a 425 oven for 20 to 25 minutes.
When done I chopped every thing into bite size pieces and put them in an iron skillet. Then topped with the following ingredients.
1 can of Black Beans (rinsed and drained)
Black Olives (sliced)
Chopped Green Onion
Chopped Tomatoes
Shredded Cheese (Your choice, I used cheddar)
Put it back into the over until cheese melts (5 to 10 minutes)
When the cheese is melted add the rest of the ingredients.
Greek Yogurt
Cilantro
Surround with the chips!
We had this sitting in the living room at the coffee table while we watching the Super Bowl. It was a hit as was the game!
