Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz thick-cut tortilla chips
  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed (or pinto beans)
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (or pepper jack)
  • 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 12 jalapeños, thinly sliced (pickled for milder heat)
  • Small handful fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • 1/2 cup sweet corn, fresh or thawed from frozen
  • Sour cream, for drizzling or dipping
  • Guacamole, homemade or store-bought
  • Salsa or pico de gallo
  • Lime wedges, for squeezing over the top

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and let it heat for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add ground beef and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned (5-6 minutes). Drain excess fat if needed.
  3. Stir in diced onion and minced garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until onion is soft and fragrant.
  4. Sprinkle in taco seasoning and toss to coat. Add drained black beans and cook for another 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Let any excess moisture simmer off.
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread half the tortilla chips in a single layer.
  6. Sprinkle half the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese over the chips.
  7. Spoon half the beef-bean mixture over the chips and cheese.
  8. Repeat layers: add remaining chips, top with remaining cheese, then the rest of the beef and beans. Finish with more cheese.
  9. Scatter tomatoes, red onion, corn, and jalapeños over the top.
  10. Bake for 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly and chips are just starting to toast. Check at 7 minutes if your oven runs hot.
  11. Remove from oven and let cool for 2 minutes.
  12. Top with dollops of sour cream, guacamole, and salsa. Finish with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime. Serve immediately.

Notes

Layering cheese both under and over toppings ensures every chip is loaded. For vegetarian, use plant-based crumbles or double beans. For vegan, use dairy-free cheese and yogurt. Pre-shredded cheese melts less smoothly than freshly grated. Add fresh toppings after baking for crunch. For extra-crispy nachos, pre-toast chips for 3 minutes before assembling.
