Ingredients
Scale
Beef Mixture
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 ounce packet taco seasoning
- 2/3 cup water
Chips & Toppings
- 26–32 restaurant-style tortilla chips
- 1/2 to 1/3 cup refried beans
- 1 1/2 cups nacho cheese or queso cheese dip (jarred or homemade)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
Instructions
- Cook Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook and crumble the ground beef until browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess grease to keep the dish from becoming too oily.
- Add Seasoning: Stir in the taco seasoning packet and 2/3 cup of water into the cooked beef. Simmer the mixture for 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the beef evenly. Keep warm.
- Warm Refried Beans: Heat the refried beans either in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave until smooth and spreadable, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Assemble Chips and Beans: Lay the tortilla chips in an even layer on a large plate or shallow bowl. Spoon small amounts of warm refried beans evenly across the chips to add a creamy base layer.
- Add Beef: Spread the seasoned ground beef mixture evenly over the refried beans and chips, distributing the meat well for maximum flavor in every bite.
- Drizzle Cheese Sauce: Pour warm nacho cheese or queso cheese dip generously over the beef and bean layers, ensuring it covers most chips and ingredients for that rich, cheesy goodness.
- Add Final Toppings: Dollop sour cream evenly on top, sprinkle diced tomatoes over the nachos, and finish with a light scattering of chopped green onions to add freshness and color.
Notes
- Use restaurant-style tortilla chips for the authentic crunchy texture.
- Adjust the amount of refried beans according to your preference for creaminess.
- You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner protein option.
- Warm the nacho cheese gently to prevent it from separating or becoming too thin.
- Serve immediately after assembly to maintain chip crispiness.
