1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup cubed smoked turkey breast

Preparation
Pico de Gallo:
- In a large bowl, combine all pico de gallo ingredients.

Fresh Corn Nachos:
- Preheat broiler. Line a 15 x 10-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Arrange tortilla chips in a single layer on the prepared pan.
- In a large skillet, sauté the onion in butter over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes or until crisp-tender.
- Reduce heat to medium. Stir in the corn, green chilies, water, chili powder, and cumin. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 5-6 minutes or until corn is tender. Remove from heat.
- Stir in the turkey and black beans.
- Spoon the corn mixture over the chips. Sprinkle evenly with Patria Mozzarella and Triple Pepper Cheddar Gruyere.
- Broil 6 inches from the heat for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Top nachos with pico de gallo and sour cream.
