Amanda De Jager Friedman suggests chips and pico de gallo from Rancho San Miguel grocery store for her dairy brothers macho nachos.
1 15oz. can of pinquitos (seasoned pink beans)
2 cups shredded jack cheese
1 cup pico de gallo
1 cup crumbled Cotija cheese
Guacamole
Directions: Heat oven to 375 degrees.
Chop up leftover meat and place in a sauté pan with salsa verde. Simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Allow the juices to reduce, and the meat to become tender. Add can of pinquitos, and heat until beans are hot. Remove from heat.
Spray a sheet pan liberally with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange chips on sheet tray in a hearty layer. Spoon the meat and bean mixture over the chips, followed by jack cheese, then pico de gallo, and finally by the cotija cheese.
Heat in oven for 12-14 minutes, or until cheese is just beginning to bubble. Serve with guacamole. And by the way, if you ate today, thank a farmer!
