Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups Tortilla chips
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 cup Black beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes (diced)
- 1 small Red onion (finely diced)
- 1 medium Jalapeño (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro leaves (chopped)
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Guacamole
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 1 cup Cooked ground beef or shredded chicken (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleaning.
Spread the tortilla chips evenly across the baking sheet in a single layer, slightly overlapping as needed.
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses over the tortilla chips to create a base layer of melted cheese.
Evenly distribute the black beans, diced cherry tomatoes, and red onion over the layer of cheese-covered chips.
If using, add the cooked ground beef or shredded chicken as an additional layer on top of the chips.
Add the remaining shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses on top, ensuring the nachos are evenly covered with cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the edges of the chips are slightly golden.
Remove the nachos from the oven and immediately add the fresh jalapeño slices and chopped cilantro as a topping.
Serve the nachos hot, garnished with dollops of sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. Optionally, serve extra toppings on the side for dipping.
Enjoy your loaded oven nachos warm as a shareable appetizer or a fun main dish!
