Ingredients

2 1/2 cups tortilla chips, lightly crushed

30 ounces black beans, drained

4 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded and divided

4 large 11 inch diameter flour tortillas, sliced into strips

24 ounces salsa (extra for garnish)

4 ounces green chiles, drained

2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

Note: although the original recipe does not call for it, I add 1 to 2 tablespoons of chili powder in mine.

Directions

Preheat oven to 325ºF.

Lightly spray baking dish with no-stick cooking spray.

Crush tortilla chips and place in bottom of baking dish.

Cut 11 inch diameter flour tortillas into 1/2 inch wide strips.

Spread all the tortilla chips over the bottom of the dish.

Layer in the following order: half of black beans (15 oz), 2 cups of cheddar cheese, half of the flour tortilla strips, and 3 cups of salsa.

Next, layer in the following order: 2 cups of cheddar cheese, remaining flour tortilla strips, and remaining (15 oz) of black beans.

Spread 2 cups of mozzarella cheese over top.

Cover with foil that has been sprayed with cooking oil on the side facing the cheese (so it will not stick) and bake 50 minutes.

Uncover and bake an additional 10 minutes.

Serve with extra salsa if desired.

That looks incredibly good! I've been on a black bean kick lately and this recipe will fit that addiction perfectly.

This was delicous, i made it this week! I actually made it the day before, and just added about 10 minutes to the baking time (since it had just come out of the fridge), it was so yummy! It was a big hit with my family, i will definitly be making this again. One thing, the ingredient list calls for green chilis but the recipie doesn't specify when to add them. So i finished making it and realized i hadn't put them in, i chopped them up real fine and sprinkled them on the top.
