Instructions
-
Preparing Your Foil Packets
Tear off four large sheets of aluminum foil, each big enough to hold a good amount of chips and toppings. Lay the foil flat on a table or your campsite's workspace.
-
Assembling the Nachos
Place a layer of tortilla chips on each foil sheet, taking care not to overcrowd the base. Now start building your nachos by evenly distributing the black beans, corn, half of the chopped onions, and half of the diced tomatoes onto the chips.
-
Adding the Cheese
Sprinkle a generous amount of cheddar cheese on top of the layers, ensuring a good cheese-to-chip ratio.
-
Folding the Packets
Fold the edges of the foil over the nachos, sealing them nicely to create a packet. Ensure they are tightly sealed to avoid any leakage.
-
Cooking the Nachos
Place your nacho packets over the campfire or on a grill grate, and let them cook for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is nicely melted and the chips are slightly crispy.
-
Serving the Nachos
Carefully remove the packets from the fire using grill tongs or oven mitts. Allow them to cool for a few minutes before opening them.
Once opened, garnish your nachos with your favorite toppings such as: onions, tomatoes, jalapeño slices, a dollop of sour cream, some salsa, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
