Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix (or homemade)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 bag of tortilla chips (about 12-16 oz)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup refried beans (optional)
- 1 medium red onion, diced
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 1/2 cup black olives, sliced
- 1/2 cup jalapeños, sliced (optional)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup salsa
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 avocado, diced (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through (about 6-8 minutes). Drain excess fat. Add taco seasoning and a splash of water, stirring until well combined. Let simmer for another 2-3 minutes to thicken.
- Prepare the Nacho Base: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). On a large baking sheet or oven-safe dish, spread out the tortilla chips in a single layer.
- Assemble the Nachos: Evenly spread a layer of the cooked ground beef mixture over the chips. Add refried beans (if using) by dolloping spoonfuls over the top. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the entire layer.
- Bake the Nachos: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Add the Toppings: Once the nachos are done baking, remove them from the oven. Top with diced onion, tomato, black olives, jalapeños, and any other desired toppings.
- Garnish and Serve: Drizzle sour cream and salsa over the nachos, then sprinkle with fresh cilantro and green onions. Top with diced avocado if desired.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately while the nachos are warm and gooey. Enjoy your epic beef nachos supreme with friends and family!
