1 3/4 oz (50 grams) Jalapeños (sliced)
7.05 oz (200 grams) Cooked protein (ground beef, shredded chicken, or black beans)
3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Sour cream
3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Guacamole
3 1/2 oz (100 grams) Salsa

1
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
2
Prepare Protein
If you are using raw protein (like ground beef or chicken), cook it in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. If using canned black beans, rinse and drain them.
3
Slice Jalapeños
Slice the jalapeños into thin rounds. If you prefer less heat, remove the seeds before slicing.

4
Layer Tortilla Chips
Spread the tortilla chips evenly on a large baking tray or a cast iron skillet.
5
Add Protein
Evenly distribute the cooked protein over the tortilla chips.
6
Add Cheese and Jalapeños
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the chips and protein. Top with sliced jalapeños.

7
Bake Nachos
Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

8
Add Final Touches
Once baked, remove the nachos from the oven and let them cool slightly. Top with dollops of sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

Serve
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your nachos!
