BEEF NACHOS



Beef nachos image

Who doesn't love crispy, crunchy, gooey nachos? It's no wonder nachos are a favorite game-day snack. Add extra jalapenos, chopped cilantro, or a drizzle of fresh lime juice to brighten things up, if desired. In Texas, classic nachos are toasty tortilla chips topped with refried beans, melted cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper Jack cheese, and fresh or pickled jalapeño slices. This recipe, loaded with a savory ground beef mix, is an even heartier spin that is guaranteed to please eager football fans and hungry ranch hands alike.

SKINNYLIGHTFUL NACHOS SUPREME



Skinnylightful Nachos Supreme image

Nachos just might be the king of all party foods! People flip for them. Normally fat-laden, these layered and baked nachos use all skinny ingredients. I'm using reduced-fat ingredients such as tortilla chips, lean taco meat, cheese, and topping with my yummy, skinny ranch dressing. These are fantastic! One skinny serving has 207 calories and 5 grams fat.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound lean ground beef, (I used 96%)
1 cup onions, (chopped)
1 tablespoon garlic, (minced)
1 (1 oz.) package taco seasonings mix, (I like Lawry's)
⅔ cup water
7 ounces reduced-fat tortilla chips, ((about 100 chips), see shopping tips)
1 (15 oz.) can black beans, (rinsed and drained)
1 (4 oz.) can Ortega fire-roasted diced green chiles, (see shopping tips)
1¼ cups salsa, (I like Pace Chunky Salsa, medium-hot)
1½ cups (6 ounces) reduced-fat cheddar cheese, (shredded)
6 tablespoons The BEST Skinny Ranch Dressing (3 ingredients)
Tabasco Sauce, (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large pan or skillet, cook ground beef with onions and garlic until meat is browned. Stir often. Pour cooked meat into a colander in the sink and drain off all excess fat. Add meat mixture back to the pan.
  • Add taco seasoning, water, and mix well. Bring to a boil, turn the heat down to simmer, and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Place the tortilla chips evenly on a large ovenproof serving plate or baking sheet coated with a little cooking spray.
  • Top the chips with ground beef mixture. Sprinkle beans evenly over the meat. Next, spoon over beans the fire-roasted chilies, and then salsa. Sprinkle the cheese all over the top.
  • At this point, you can place it in the fridge until you're ready to serve it.
  • When ready to serve, bake in preheated 350 degrees oven for 15 - 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and the nachos are hot.
  • Dollop with ranch dressing or sour cream and add a bit more salsa. If you really like food spicy, sprinkle a bit of Tabasco sauce over the top!
  • Serve at once.
