Ingredients
  

MEATLESS GREEN CHILE

  • 1 package Beyond Burger Patties
  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/3 cup diced Yellow Onions
  • 1 tbsp Minced Garlic
  • 1 tbsp Cholula Hot Sauce
  • 1 tsp Chile Powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 4 oz canned Green Chiles
  • 1/2 cup Dark Red Kidney Beans (from the can, drained and washed)
  • Tortilla Chips (I used Tostitos with Lime)

JALAPENO QUESO

  • 4 oz of Velveeta Cheese
  • 2 tbsp Diced Pickled Jalapenos
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 2 tbsp All Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup (or more) Plant Milk unsweetened
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Chile Powder
  • 1 tsp Mrs Dash Original Blend
  • Dash of #SPANKING

Instructions
 

MEATLESS GREEN CHILE

  • In your cast iron pan, add oil over medium heat.  Add the two beyond meat burger patties and break them apart into crumbles.  Cook until they're browned.
  • Scoot the meat over to one side and make room to add the onions and garlic.  Saute until fragrant and the onions are tender for about 2-3 minutes.  Add the remaining ingredients (hot sauce, chile & garlic powder, chiles, kidney beans) except the chips!  Mix everything together for about 5 minutes.  Set aside in another bowl.

JALAPENO QUESO

  • Create the basic roux - flour, butter, and milk in your small saucepan.  Don't add all the milk! Just add equal parts (2 tbsp butter, 2 tbsp flour, and 2 tbsp milk),
  • Add the the smoke paprika, garlic powder, and Mrs. Dash.  Once the roux is thick enough, add the Velveeta cheese into the roux.  Slowly pour the rest of the milk while whisking continuously to form your desired consistency.  You'll want the sauce to look thick and melty.  Lastly, drop those pickled jalapenos for that extra kick of flavor to the queso!

BUILD & BAKE THE NACHOS

  • Use the same cast iron pan and create the first layer by adding the chips. The second layer will be the meatless green chile, then your third layer will be the jalapeno queso. Continue the process if you have extras.
  • Pop them into the oven and broil on the low setting for about 3-4 minutes or bake them at 400°F for 5-8 minutes. Just remember to keep and eye on the oven.  Baking times vary. 
  • Serve immediately!
