Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups tortilla chips
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 cup cooked ground beef (optional, seasoned with taco spices)
- 1 cup black beans (rinsed and drained)
- 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 0.5 cup black olives (sliced)
- 0.25 cup jalapeños (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup guacamole
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 0.25 cup pickled red onions (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Spread the tortilla chips evenly across the baking sheet to create a single layer.
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese over the chips, ensuring even coverage.
Distribute the ground beef (if using), black beans, and corn kernels evenly over the cheese layer.
Add the diced tomatoes, black olives, and jalapeños as toppings, spacing them across the chips for balanced flavors.
Top with the remaining shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese to ensure a gooey, melty finish.
Bake the nachos in the preheated oven for 7-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Carefully remove the nachos from the oven and let them cool for 2 minutes.
Sprinkle the chopped cilantro over the nachos for a burst of freshness.
Serve immediately with dollops of sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and pickled red onions on the side or directly on top.
