Directions
1.
For tortilla chips, stack tortillas and cut into wedges with scissors or a sharp knife. Place wedges in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove the chips from oven. Arrange tortilla chips in one layer, overlapping slightly, on an 11- or 12-inch ovenproof platter.
2.
In a medium saucepan combine black beans and the 1/2 cup salsa; cook and stir over medium heat just until heated through. Remove from heat; spoon bean mixture over chips.
3.
Sprinkle cheese, sweet peppers, and jalapeno peppers over bean mixture on chips. Bake in a 425 degree F oven for 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve immediately with additional salsa, if desired. Makes 10 servings.

Make-ahead tip
Prepare tortilla chips; cool but do not add toppings. Store chips in airtight container or self-sealing plastic bag at room temperature up to 24 hours, or freeze up to 2 weeks.
