Super Nacho Bowl

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 F. Remove all but the lower rack in the oven.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together all of the seasonings.  Set aside.

Step 3

Optional step: Place onion and bell peppers into a medium-sized sauté pan. Sauté over medium-high heat until soft and onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.  This will help remove some of the moisture.

Step 4

Spray the entire inside of a very large, oven-safe bowl with nonstick spray (we used a 13" stainless steel bowl).  Make sure the bowl will fit comfortably in the oven before spraying. Use 1/4 tsp. of the seasoning to coat the inside of the bowl.

Step 5

Cover the bottom of the bowl with a layer of tortilla chips. Begin building your layer by topping the chips with 1/4 of the Dei Fratelli Chopped Mexican Tomatoes, cheeses, beans, olives, onion, and peppers. Finish with a sprinkle of 1/4 tsp. seasoning.

Step 6

Top with another layer of chips and repeat until the bowl is filled, about 3 more times.  Make sure the very top layer is only chips.

Step 7

Bake for 45 minutes or until cheese is completely melted.  Remove from oven carefully and cover with a large baking sheet or pizza pan.  Invert to flip nachos out of the bowl.
