Bell Pepper Nachos

Steph here--

Today for the game I wanted something to snack on. I wanted to find something healthier than the typical game day snacks and I found this recipe for Bell Pepper Nachos. Its from the site tasteofhome.com.   It is basically the same thing as typical nachos except you use Bell Peppers in place of tortilla chips. It turned out really good! I also added some black beans to the mixture for some extra protein in there. I will definitely be making these again! I also put some of Kens homemade salsa on top of each one and it make it even better! Ill try to get him to post the recipe for his salsa soon!
