- Prepare the Guacamole:
Mash the avocado in a bowl, then add a pinch of salt, a squeeze of lime juice, and a few chopped cilantro leaves. Mix well and set aside. - Assemble the Nachos:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a generous layer of tortilla chips on a baking sheet or oven-safe dish. Evenly distribute the black beans, corn, and vegan cheese over the chips. If you prefer your cheese to be melted, you can bake the nachos for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese has fully melted. - Add Fresh Toppings:
After baking, top the nachos with diced red onion, diced tomatoes, jalapeños, and a spoonful of guacamole. You can also add a drizzle of vegan sour cream or your favorite salsa at this point. - Garnish and Serve:
Finish off with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a few lime wedges on the side. Serve immediately while the nachos are still warm and enjoy the combination of creamy, spicy, and savory flavors.
Serving and Storage Tips:
- Serve immediately for the best crispy texture and warm toppings. If you want to keep the nachos hot for a while, place them in a warm oven or cover them lightly with foil to retain heat.
- Leftover nachos can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. However, they are best eaten fresh, as the chips tend to lose their crispiness when stored.
