- 1 bag tortilla chips

- 2 large tomatoes , diced
- 5 stalks green onions , chopped

Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Place beans in a microwave safe bowl and cook for 1 minutes, stirring after 30 seconds.

Using a baking sheet or large cast iron skillet, add a thin layer of chips to cover the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle about ¼ cup of each cheese on top. Add ⅓ of the beans.
-
Add another layer of chips, ¼ cup of each cheese, ⅓ of the beans, and ½ of the tomatoes.
-
Add another layer of chips (this is the top layer), ¼ cup of each cheese, the remaining beans, tomatoes, jalapenos, and half of the green onions. Cover the top with the remaining cheese and green onions.

Place in oven and bake for 8-12 minutes, or until cheese is melted and chips are starting to slightly brown. Remove from oven and top with jalapeno ranch. Serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
If adding chicken, add it in layers- under the cheese (this helps it stick to the chips).
