Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

Evenly distribute the cooked ground beef over the cheese-covered chips.

Step 7

Add black beans (drained and rinsed) evenly across the top.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top of the meat and beans.

Step 9

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

Remove the nachos from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes.
