Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces Tortilla chips
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
- 1 cup Water
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 cup Black beans (rinsed and drained)
- 1 cup Diced tomatoes
- 1 quarter cup Sliced jalapeños (optional)
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Guacamole
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
Spread the tortilla chips evenly across the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese across the tortilla chips.
Evenly distribute the seasoned ground beef over the chips, followed by the black beans, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños (if using), and remaining cheddar cheese along with the Monterey Jack cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Carefully remove the nachos from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes.
Top the nachos with dollops of sour cream, guacamole, and a sprinkling of chopped green onions and cilantro (if using).
Serve immediately and enjoy these loaded Nachos Grande with your favorite salsa or hot sauce on the side.
