Posted: 22 Jan 2012 05:39 AM PST

To counter our processed-food bashing and ensuing depression, we like to showcase healthy, tasty recipes here on Fooducate.

With the Superbowl coming up, you may be tempted to Dorito-fy your household. STOP! We want to show you how easy and fun it is to prepare finger foods that are both tasty and healthy. If you’d like to submit a recipe for consideration, please comment below or email info at fooducate dot com. We’ll publish one or two of the best recipes ahead of the big game.

Here’s an interesting and easy recipe from professional chef Dave Schy. Visit his website New Taste, for step by step pictures of this and other great recipes.

Today – Persimmon-Avocado Nachos using baked blue corn tortilla chips

Here's what Dave says:

I recently demonstrated this recipe at a Farmers Market and it was a hit. I actually saw my friend, Chef Andie doing a very similar version at another farmers market the week before and “borrowed” the idea from her, with her permission.  

2     Persimmons
1     Avocado, large or 2 medium size
1     Jalapeno
1/2  Red Onion, medium-small one
1/4  Cup Chopped Cilantro
3    Tbs. Lemon or Lime Juice
1/2  tsp. Dark Chile Powder, maybe a bit more
1/2  tsp. Ground Cumin
1/2  tsp. Salt

5     Blue Corn Tortillas
2     tsp. Olive Oil

Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Wash and dry the persimmons.

Peel the onion and cut in half.

Wash and spin dry the cilantro.

Cut jalapeno in half; mince one half and cut the other half into thin round slices.

 

Rub a few drops of oil onto one side of each tortilla.

Stack the tortillas and cut them into quarters.

Place tortilla quarters onto a half sheet pan.

Bake in the oven for 8 minutes.

Remove from oven and turn each chip over.

Bake for another 8 minutes.

Remove and let cool on the same sheet pan.

 

Cut persimmons into 1/4 inch thick round slices.

Cut persimmon slices into a small dice.

Small dice the onion and avocado.

Mince the jalapeno half.

Chop the cilantro.

Gather and measure spices.

Place all fresh ingredients plus spices into a mixing bowl and toss together.

Place a large spoonful of the salsa onto a chip.

Garnish with a jalapeno slice and serve.
