Steps:
- Add cooking spray to a small skillet and cook jalapeno over medium heat until tender, just a few minutes.
- Place cooked jalapeno in a large bowl with chicken, avocado, yogurt, 1 cup cheese, chili powder and cumin. Stir to combine. Add salt and pepper if desired, to taste.
- Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil. Arrange peppers on cookie sheet. Fill each pepper with about 1-2 tablespoons chicken mixture. (Every pepper will vary as the mini peppers often come in different sizes.)
- Top with remaining cheese.
- Broil on high for 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and peppers have started to cook around the edges. They won't get soft - they stay crunchy on purpose.
- Garnish with scallions and serve with a side of salsa.

Tips:
- Use a variety of mini peppers. Different colors and shapes of mini peppers will add visual appeal to your nachos.
- Roast the mini peppers before assembling the nachos. This will help to bring out their sweetness and flavor.
- Use a flavorful cheese blend. A combination of cheddar, mozzarella, and Monterey Jack cheese is a classic choice for nachos.
- Don't overload the nachos with toppings. Too many toppings can make the nachos soggy and difficult to eat.
- Serve the nachos immediately. Nachos are best when they are hot and fresh out of the oven.
