Yield: 6
Ingredients: 8 corn tortillas; salt; 1/4 c. pickled sliced jalapeño chiles; 1 can no-salt-added black beans; 1 c. low-fat (1-percent) milk; 1 tbsp. cornstarch; 1 tbsp. water; 4 oz. reduced-fat (50-percent) extra-sharp Cheddar cheese; 2 plum tomatoes; 1 green onion

Step 1Sprinkle 1 side of tortillas with 1/4 teaspoon salt. In 4 batches, place tortillas between 2 paper towels on microwave-safe plate in single layer, spacing 1/2 inch apart. Microwave on High 2 minutes or until crisp.

Step 2Finely chop half of jalapeños; reserve remaining for serving. Reserve 1/4 cup beans; place remaining in medium bowl.

Step 3In 1 1/2- to 2-quart saucepan, heat milk on medium until just bubbling around edges. In small bowl, stir cornstarch and water until cornstarch dissolves. With wire whisk, stir cornstarch mixture into hot milk. Heat to simmering, whisking constantly; simmer 2 minutes or until thickened, whisking constantly. Remove from heat. Add cheese and whisk until melted and smooth. Stir in chopped jalapeños.

Step 4Pour 1/4 cup sauce over beans in bowl. With potato masher or fork, mash beans until almost smooth.

Step 5Place tortilla chips on serving plate. Spoon mashed beans over, then top with remaining sauce. Top with tomatoes, green onion, reserved beans, and reserved jalapeños.
