Leftover Turkey Nachos Recipes

LEFTOVER TURKEY NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to Low Broil.
• Spread enough tortillas that will fit into the bottom of a sheet pan. I use 15-17 large chips. You will need enough to fit your sheet pan. (I use half sheet.)
• Combine the cooked turkey, black beans, diced tomatoes and chilies, onions, sliced olives and Taco Seasoning in a large bowl. Stir and spread over the tortilla chips.
• Sprinkle the cheese throughout.
• Broil for 4-6 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
