Ingredients
  

  • 6 medium Whole Wheat Tortillas

Nacho Cheese Sauce

Tofu Black Beans

  • 200g Smoked Tofu (or extra firm pressed tofu) crumbled
  • ½ cup Black Beans
  • 2 tbsp Taco Seasoning I used a mix of smoked paprika, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder and chili powder
  • ¼ cup Tomato Sauce

For Topping

  • 1 large Chopped Tomato
  • 3 stalks Green Onion
  • cup Black 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!
