Ingredients:

  • 12 soft corn tortillas (6 inches)
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen/thawed, or canned/drained)
  • 1/2 cup beans, black or pinto (canned or cooked; drained)

  • 1 jalapeno pepper, finely minced (optional)

5. Remove to a plate and repeat until all tortillas are heated.

6. Mix together nonfat yogurt, cilantro and salt to make the dip.
