Equipment

  • 1 Large sheet pan *Mine is 13x17 inches

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces corn tortilla chips
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasonings *see note below
  • ⅓ cup water
  • 8 oz. shredded cheddar cheese *or cheese of choice *see note below
  • 1 2.25 ounce can sliced black olives *drained
  • ¼ cup black beans *drained & rinsed
  • ¼ cup Sliced canned jalapeños
  • ¼ cup refried beans

Other optional topping ideas:

  • Avocado, tomatoes, sour cream, cilantro, salsa

Recipe notes:

Taco seasoning: I use Siete Brand Taco Seasonings for this recipe but any brand will work!
Cheese: I prefer to shred cheese straight from the block because it melts better. However, you can use pre-shredded, bagged cheese if desired.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Brown beef over medium-high and drain excess fat if necessary. Add taco seasonings and water, stir well. Allow ingredients to come to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook 2-3 minutes until thickened and remove from heat.
    1 packet taco seasonings, ⅓ cup water
  • Place a single base layer of corn tortilla chips on large baking sheet and cover with two thirds of your toppings, seasoned ground beef and cheese.
  • Add a second, thinner layer of chips and cover with remaining toppings.
  • Finish with cheese and bake for 5-10 minutes. (*Tip: bake just until the cheese melts. It will quickly become crisp rather than gooey if nachos are left in the oven too long).
  • Serve with salsa, avocado, tomato, sour cream, etc.
  • Enjoy!
