Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 10-12 oz Tortilla chips Approximately 2 bags
  • 2 cups Shredded cheese Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend
  • 1 can Black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup Corn Can be frozen or fresh
  • 1/2 cup Jalapeños, sliced Adjust to taste
For Serving
  • Sour cream For serving
  • Guacamole For serving
  • Salsa For serving
  • Chopped fresh cilantro For garnish (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
Layering
  1. In a large bowl or on a large plate, spread out half of the tortilla chips.
  2. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese over the chips.
  3. Follow with half of the black beans, corn, and jalapeños.
  4. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients.
Cooking
  1. Carefully place the layered nachos into the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd.
  2. Air fry for 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Serving
  1. Remove the nachos from the air fryer and let them cool slightly.
  2. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, a generous spoonful of guacamole, and some tangy salsa on the side.
  3. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

For best results, do not overcrowd the chips in the air fryer. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
