Ingredients

  • 2-3 cups of whole grain tortilla chips
  • 2 cups reduced-fat shredded cheese blend (such as cheddar and Monterey Jack)
  • 1 green onion thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives drained
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes diced
  • 1/4 cup pickled jalapeños chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro finely chopped
  • salsa and Greek yogurt as a healthier alternative to sour cream, for serving
  • 1 avocado peeled and diced

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 320°F. Line a sheet of parchment paper in your air fryer basket
  • Arrange a single layer of tortilla chips over the sheet, slightly overlapping them to prevent gaps (you want to support the toppings and prevent them from falling through).

  • Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly over the chips, followed by the white parts of the onion.

  • Add another layer of tortilla chips on top of the cheese. Finish by topping with the remaining cheese, green parts of the onion, jalapeños and black olives, if desired.

  • Air fry for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges of the chips are just beginning to brown.

  • Serve immediately with salsa and a bit of Greek yogurt on the side. It is a bit healthier than traditional sour cream.
