Epic Beef Nacho Supreme: A Must-Have Recipe

Ingredients

• Taco Seasoning: Use homemade or one packet/serving of store-bought taco seasoning.
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1/2 yellow onion, diced
• 2 bags tortilla chips (16 ounces each)
• 1 can refried beans
• 16 ounces shredded cheese of choice (cheddar and Monterey jack recommended)
• 3 Roma tomatoes, diced
• 2 to 3 green onions, sliced

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Cook the Beef: In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef and diced onions until fully cooked, about 8 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
3. Season the Beef: Return the beef to the skillet, sprinkle on the taco seasoning, and stir in 3/4 cup of water. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
4. Prepare the Baking Sheets: While the beef is cooking, line two baking sheets with parchment paper and spread a generous layer of tortilla chips on each.
5. Add Refried Beans: Spoon the refried beans over the chips on both baking sheets. The beans are thick, so place spoonfuls across the chips—they will spread as they heat in the oven.
6. Add Beef and Cheese: Divide the seasoned ground beef evenly between the two baking sheets, spooning it over the chips and beans. Sprinkle shredded cheese generously on top.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with diced tomatoes and sliced green onions. Serve hot and enjoy!
