Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

  2. 2

    Add Taco Seasoning

    Stir in the taco seasoning into the cooked beef and add 1/4 cup of water. Mix well and simmer for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Layer the Chips

    On a large baking sheet, spread the tortilla chips in an even layer.

  2. 4

    Add Beef

    Evenly distribute the seasoned ground beef over the tortilla chips.

  3. 5

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese over the beef layer.

  4. 6

    Add Toppings

    Top with sliced black olives, jalapeños, diced tomatoes, and chopped green onions.

Baking

  1. 7

    Bake the Nachos

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the nachos in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve with Dips

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Serve hot, garnished with dollops of sour cream and guacamole on the side.
