Directions

Dr. Joanna McMillan from Good Chef Bad Chef has created this delicious nachos recipe using Corn Thins slices. Enjoy.

Lay the Corn Thins slice quarters on a large serving platter or baking sheet.

Blend the soaked cashews, almond milk, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt in a blender until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

In a mixing bowl, combine black beans, cherry tomatoes, corn kernels, red onion, chilli (if using), and lime juice. Toss gently.

Spoon the bean and corn mixture evenly over the corn thins. Drizzle the creamy cashew cheese sauce generously on top.

Add diced avocado and fresh coriander leaves on top. For an extra zing, garnish with pickled jalapeños or a dollop of Greek yoghurt.

If you prefer warm nachos, place the Corn Thins slices with the bean and corn mixture on a baking sheet and heat in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 5-7 minutes. Add avocado, cheesy sauce, and garnishes after warming.
