Why This Recipe Works

These nachos are bursting with bold flavors and textures, making them a satisfying plant-based treat. They are easy to customize and perfect for sharing with friends or family. Plus, they offer a delicious way to enjoy a variety of wholesome ingredients.

Simple Cooking Tips

- Use a mix of different beans and vegetables to add depth and nutrition.
- Toast the tortilla chips lightly in the oven for extra crunch before layering.
- Add fresh lime juice and chopped cilantro at the end to brighten the flavors.

Step 1

Soak the cashews in cold water for about 4 hours, then drain them. While that’s soaking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with foil. Next, toss the drained cashews, salsa, bell pepper, nutritional yeast, turmeric, and a teaspoon of salt into a high-speed blender. Blend everything until it’s smooth and a little warm.

Step 2

Spread your tortilla chips evenly on the baking sheet, then spoon the chili over them. Follow that with dollops of the cashew “cheese” sauce. Pop the tray in the oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until everything is heated through and bubbling slightly.

Step 3

While the nachos are baking, mix up the guacamole by mashing the avocados with lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt. Keep it a bit chunky for texture. Once the nachos are out of the oven, top them with the guacamole, some pico de gallo, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. Serve right away and enjoy!

Serving Advice

Serve with a side of guacamole, salsa, or vegan sour cream for extra creaminess. They also pair well with a fresh green salad or a simple corn and tomato salad to balance the richness.

Storage Guide

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. To keep the chips from getting soggy, store toppings separately and assemble just before eating. Reheat gently in the oven for best results.
