Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook and crumble the beef until browned fully, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet before stirring in the taco seasoning mix and 1/4 cup of water. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes until the beef is evenly coated and the liquid reduces slightly. Set aside.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the tortilla chips in an even layer on a large sheet pan or oven-safe platter.
Warm the refried beans in a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan until heated through and spread small dollops over the tortilla chips.
Drizzle the queso dip or nacho cheese evenly over the top of the chips and beans.
Sprinkle the seasoned ground beef evenly over the nachos followed by the shredded cheddar cheese.
Place the assembled nachos in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.
Remove the nachos from the oven and allow them to cool for 1-2 minutes. Add the toppings: sour cream, diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, sliced black olives, chopped green onions, and dollops of guacamole.
Serve immediately with extra guacamole, sour cream, or salsa on the side if desired.
