    Prepare the Protein

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, chicken, shrimp, or veggie mix until fully cooked and browned. Drain any excess fat and set aside.

    On a large baking sheet or platter, spread out the tortilla chips evenly.

    Pour or spoon the queso cheese evenly over the entire nacho layer.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the loaded nachos for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
