Make these kid-friendly nachos with a gentle spice mix that even the fussiest of eaters will love. Serve with corn nachos and let the hungry hordes dig in!
Ingredients
400 g canned whole tomato (strained)
1 cup corn kernels
400 g canned kidney beans (strained)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika (ground)
1 tsp onion flakes
4 Turkey ham slices (diced)
2 cups mozzarella
175 g corn chips (Nachos)
Method
1 Preheat your oven to 200°C, spray an oven tray with cooking spray and line with corn chips.
2 Cook the diced turkey ham until warmed through and set to one side.
3 In a large bowl, add strained tomatoes and crush with a spoon or potato masher to make a lumpy sauce. Add corn, beans, cumin, paprika onion flakes, salt, pepper and bacon pieces.
4 Give the mixture a good stir. You may need to drain a little of the liquid off, depending on your tomatoes.
5 With a slotted spoon, place mixture on top of the corn chips then follow with cheese.
6 Pop into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese melted.
Notes
I designed this recipe for my three year old. I cook off the bacon, open the tins and he throws it all together.
The spices can be pre-measured and put in a small bowl- much easier than measuring out with tiny hands helping.
You can make this as one big dish or portion it out onto individual plates - just make sure they are oven proof!
Once the cheese has melted, serve as is or add sour cream, guacamole and jalapenos for the adults.
For the vegetarian option skip the turkey step.
