Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse and drain the canned black beans, then mix them in a small bowl with the olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, and salt.
Spread the tortilla chips evenly across a large baking sheet or oven-safe platter.
Sprinkle the mixed black beans evenly over the tortilla chips.
Combine the shredded cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese, then evenly distribute over the beans and chips.
Finely chop the red onion and tomatoes, then thinly slice the jalapeño pepper, and sprinkle them over the cheese-covered chips.
Place the loaded chips in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
While the nachos are baking, prepare the guacamole by mashing the avocado in a bowl, squeezing in the juice from the lime, and mixing with the chopped cilantro.
Remove the nachos from the oven once they are ready.
Top the hot nachos with dollops of guacamole and sour cream.
Enjoy your Vegetarian Loaded Nachos while warm and melty!
