For a vegetarian option, substitute the chili with a plant-based alternative or a mixture of black beans and corn. Feel free to customize the toppings to your liking. Consider adding sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, or a drizzle of hot sauce. For best results, use high-quality tortilla chips that can hold up to the weight of the toppings. If you don't have an oven-safe platter, you can use a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
