  • Black beans: 400g 14 oz can, drained and rinsed
  • Shredded cheddar cheese: 250g 8.8 oz
  • Red bell peppers: 2 diced
  • Jalapeños: 3 sliced
  • Greek yogurt: 200g 7 oz

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  • Once the oil is shimmering, add the ground chicken. Season with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly until it turns white, breaking it into smaller chunks.
  • While the chicken cooks, spread the tortilla chips on a large baking tray in a single layer.
  • Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese over the tortilla chips.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, spread it over the chips and cheese layer.
  • Sprinkle on the black beans, diced red bell peppers, and remaining cheese.
  • Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
  • While the nachos bake, mix the Greek yogurt with a little water to create a drizzle-like consistency.
  • Once baked, remove the nachos from the oven. Drizzle with the Greek yogurt mixture.
  • Top with sliced jalapeños, avocado slices, and a generous amount of salsa.

Notes

For an added protein boost, consider adding quinoa or lentils to your Bulking Game Day Nachos.
Switch up the toppings based on personal preference or seasonal availability. Think corn, olives, or even roasted pumpkin.
To make your nachos even healthier, opt for whole grain or vegetable-based tortilla chips.
  1. Serve the Bulking Game Day Nachos while they’re hot and fresh from the oven.
  2. Pair with a refreshing iced tea or sparkling water with a slice of lemon.
  3. A fresh salad with a tangy dressing can be a fantastic accompaniment to balance out the rich flavors
