Ingredients

To build the nachos

1 pound lean ground beef (see note)
½ onion diced
2 tablespoons taco seasoning (1 packet)
16 ounces tortilla chips
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese or more to preference
1 cup pinto beans canned, drained and rinsed

To top the nachos

¼ cup pico de gallo
¼ cup guacamole
¼ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and onion until cooked through. Drain any excess fat or liquid, then stir in the taco seasoning until coated.
Spread corn tortilla chips over the entire baking sheet. Place half the cheese over the chips, then evenly place the ground beef and beans over the cheese. Top with remaining cheese.
Bake for 8-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the edges are golden.
Remove from oven. Sprinkle with cilantro, then dollop the sour cream, guacamole and pico de gallo over the nachos (or leave on the side for dipping.)

Notes

You can replace the ground beef, onion and taco seasoning with 2-3 cups of leftover taco meat.
