Buffalo Pile

A family favorite. I like making this dish when it is hot outside and want an easy meal to fix. I usually make it with chicken, but the beef is great also.

Ingredients:
1-2 bags of Buffalo Tortilla Chips (original flavor is best) Regular tortilla chips work also.
1 medium boneless beef roast (seasoned with garlic, sliced onions and sprinkles of cinnamon, slow cooked and shredded) or 6 -8 chicken breasts (seasoned with garlic and slice onions, slow cooked and shredded)
3 cans (16 ounces) cooked black beans, heated
4 cups mild cheddar or jack cheese, shredded
1 head iceberg lettuce, finely shredded
1/2 cup Laurie's Cilantro Lime Salsa
3 medium avocados, sliced
Sour cream, black olives, tomatoes, fresh cilantro, chopped for garnish

Directions:

On a large serving plate, place a good pile of the chips (can be warmed). Top with the warm meat and black beans. Arrange the cheese over the beans, followed by the shredded lettuce and the salsa (can use more salsa, if desired). Arrange the slices of avocados around the "pile", then add garnish of sour cream, olives, tomatoes, and cilantro.

There is no need for utensils with this dish, just scoop it up with the Buffalo Chips. You won't need to serve much else. it will really fill you up.

Yield: 8 - 10 servings.
