Loaded Nachos
Crispy tortilla chips piled high with seasoned beef, melty cheese, and all your favorite toppings. A customizable game-day favorite that teens can make themselves.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 bag (13 oz) tortilla chips
- 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1 tomato, diced
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 avocado, diced
- 2 green onions, sliced
- ¼ cup pickled jalapenos (optional)
Method
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in taco seasoning according to packet directions with the recommended amount of water. Simmer until thickened.
- Spread tortilla chips in an even layer on the baking sheet. Top with seasoned beef, black beans, and shredded cheese.
- Bake until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and top with diced tomato, avocado, green onions, sour cream, and jalapenos if desired.
Chef's note: Pro tip: layer the nachos in two rounds for maximum coverage. Put down half the chips and half the toppings, then repeat. This way every chip gets loaded. Customize with whatever toppings you like.
