2tbspTaco SeasoningI used a mix of smoked paprika, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder and chili powder
¼cupTomato Sauce
For Topping
1largeChopped Tomato
3stalksGreen Onion
⅓cupBlack Olives
Instructions
Stack your tortillas on top of each other and slice them into triangles.
Spread out your tortilla triangles onto a few baking trays. You will need to do this in 2-3 batches as the tortillas will not all fit on one tray.
Bake at 450f for 5-7 minutes until slightly golden, making sure to watch carefully for the last few minutes so they do not burn. Take them out and assemble all of the triangles on a single baking tray. Set them aside to cool, they will harden a few minutes after they come out of the oven.
Next, make your cheese sauce. Roughly chop your potatoes and carrot and boil until soft. Strain and add them to a high speed blender with the rest of the ingredients and blend until completely smooth.
Make your tofu & black bean mixture. Heat up a pan over medium heat and add in your crumbled tofu, black beans, tomato sauce and taco seasoning. Cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through.
Assemble your nachos, Add on your chopped veggies, tofu & black bean mixture and drizzle your cheese sauce on top.
Bake at 450f for 15 minutes and serve with some extra cheese sauce, vegan sour cream or guacamole!
