  4. Arrange pita chips close together on parchment paper–lined baking sheet. Scatter Lilydale®Turkey Breakfast Sausage , cheese, black beans, red pepper and green onions over top.
  5. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes or until cheese is melted. Before serving, top nachos with jalapeño and radishes. Serve with salsa and guacamole.
