Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil, optional
1 pound lean ground beef (I used 90% lean)
one 1-ounce packet taco seasoning (I used medium heat, reduced sodium)
8 cups corn tortilla chips (I used Hint of Lime)
one 13-ounce jar Cowboy Caviar (or a thick black bean, corn, red pepper salsa)
2 to 3 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
2 green onions, sliced into thin rounds
1 to 2 tablespoons cilantro or to taste, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • To a large skillet, add the optional oil, ground beef, and cook beef over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, or until cooked through; stir and crumble as it cooks.
  • Evenly sprinkle the taco seasoning and stir; set aside.
  • To a separate oven-safe skillet, add half the chips, evenly top with half the beef, half the cowboy caviar, and half the cheese.
  • Repeat the layering process with the remaining half of the chips, beef, cowboy caviar, and cheese.
  • Bake for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  • Evenly sprinkle with the green onions, cilantro, and serve immediately. Nachos are best warm and fresh.
