These nachos use mushrooms instead of high-fat fried chips as their base. Plan on having plenty around—they disappear quickly!

　　

Ingredients

serves 8, 2 nachos per serving

　　16 large fresh button mushrooms, stems discarded

　　Olive oil spray

　　1/4 teaspoon chili powder

　　1/3 cup fat-free refried beans

　　4 cherry tomatoes, quartered

　　1/3 cup shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)

　　16 black olive slices

　　

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

　　

Step 2

Put the mushrooms with the rounded sides up on a large nonstick baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil spray. Sprinkle with the chili powder. Turn the mushrooms over.

　　

Step 3

Spread 1 teaspoon beans over the cavity of each mushroom. Place a cherry tomato quarter with the cut side up on the beans. Slightly press the tomato into the beans to secure it. Sprinkle with the Cheddar. Top with the olive slices.

　　

Step 4

Bake for 10 minutes, or until warm.
