Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives
  • 1 cup fresh salsa salsa verde or red
  • 1/4 cup diced jalapenos
  • 1 cup diced avocado
  • 1/2 cup enchilada sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves

  • Your favorite hot sauce to taste
  • 1 bag thick-cut tortilla chips restaurant-style

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Spread the tortilla chips evenly on a large baking sheet or platter.
  3. Drizzle the enchilada sauce over the chips, ensuring even coverage.
  4. Spoon fresh salsa across the chips.
  5. Scatter diced jalapenos, chopped green onions, black olives, and diced avocado evenly over the top.
  6. Sprinkle chopped cilantro leaves over the nachos.
  7. Add dollops of sour cream or serve on the side.
  8. Drizzle fresh lime juice across the platter for a citrusy zing.
  9. Top with crushed tortilla chips for an extra crunch.
  10. Finish with a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce.
  11. Bake in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, just enough to warm everything through without sogging the chips.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Make it a Meal: Add cooked ground beef, shredded chicken, or black beans for extra protein.
  • Vegan Option: Swap sour cream with dairy-free alternatives and skip any cheese.
  • Prevent Soggy Chips: Always add wet toppings like salsa and enchilada sauce sparingly and bake briefly to keep chips crisp.
  • Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge and reheated in the oven for crunch retention.
