Ingredients

• 10 ounces Tortilla chips
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
• 2 cloves Garlic clove, minced
• 1 packet Taco seasoning
• 0.5 cup Water
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 1 cup Black beans, rinsed and drained
• 0.25 cup Jalapeño slices
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 1 cup Pico de gallo
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
• 1 large Avocado, diced
• 1 large Lime, cut into wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Spread the tortilla chips evenly on a large oven-safe platter or sheet pan.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Drain any excess fat from the skillet. Stir in the taco seasoning and 0.5 cup of water. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the seasoned ground beef over the layer of tortilla chips.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and black beans over the beef.

Step 8

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the nachos from the oven and top with jalapeño slices, dollops of sour cream, pico de gallo, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro.

Step 10

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for a zesty squeeze. Enjoy your Blue Ribbon Beef Nachos!
