Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon Low-sodium taco seasoning
- 60 milliliters Water
- 150 grams Baked tortilla chips
- 100 grams Low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 100 grams Diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Sliced jalapeños
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro leaves
- 60 grams Low-fat sour cream
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the lean ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet, then add the taco seasoning and water. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is coated and the mixture thickens.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
On a large baking sheet, spread the baked tortilla chips evenly. Top the chips with the seasoned beef mixture, followed by the shredded low-fat cheddar cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the nachos from the oven and top them with diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, chopped green onions, and fresh cilantro leaves.
Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Serve the nachos hot, with low-fat sour cream on the side for dipping or drizzling.
