Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1 (14.5 ounces / 411 grams) package tortilla chips
- 1 (15 ounces / 425 grams) can black beans, drained and rinsed
Cheese and Dairy:
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Toppings and Garnishes:
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
- 1/4 cup sliced jalapeños
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 avocado, diced
Instructions
- Prepare the oven at 350°F for quick nachos assembly.
- Layer tortilla chips uniformly across a spacious baking sheet or heat-resistant platter.
- Distribute black beans evenly across the chip foundation.
- Cook ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until thoroughly browned, eliminating excess grease.
- Cascade shredded cheddar cheese generously over beans and chips.
- Arrange cooked ground beef atop the melting cheese layer.
- Transfer the nachos into the preheated oven, allowing 10 minutes for cheese to transform into a molten blanket.
- Extract nachos from oven and embellish with complementary toppings: dollops of sour cream, vibrant salsa, sliced black olives, zesty jalapeños, chopped green onions, and freshly diced avocado.
- Serve piping hot for maximum flavor and texture enjoyment.
Notes
- Swap ground beef with plant-based crumbles or black beans for a vegetarian version that’s equally delicious and protein-packed.
- Toast chips in the oven for an extra crispy base before adding toppings to prevent sogginess and maintain a perfect crunch.
- Customize toppings based on dietary needs by using low-fat cheese, Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, or gluten-free tortilla chips for diverse preferences.
- Prepare toppings in advance and store separately to quickly assemble nachos for quick weeknight meals or last-minute game day snacks.
