Over the Top Nachos

Ground beef is the key to these hearty classic nachos--it's generously spread over the chips before cheese and toppings.

I did change these up a little based on what I had on hand. I used green chiles in a can instead of the jalapeno. And, I only had ground turkey meat, so that is what I tried it with. And, I served with homemade guacamole on top with chopped tomatoes. All the ingredients seemed kind of separate, and it didn't really come together as anything different than what the ingredients were. But everyone seemed to like it.

So far this is our best attempt at making nachos like in the restaurant. The shredded chicken was delicious. We just added extra jalapenos and served w/ more salsa and cream fraiche.

definately a 5 star recipe with just a few minor changes. I took other reviewers advise and Baked the tortilla chips at 350 degrees at least 10 minutes. I baked them in a roasting pan since looking at my cookie sheets i didn't think they would fit. I warmed up the beans while cooking the meat, and added a taco seasoning pack. Took the chips out sprinkled the meat, then dolloped the beans over the chips and spread them slightly then covered in cheese popped it back in the over till melted and garnished with shredded lettuce, tomatoes and a few fresh jalapeno. But all in all It was great the kids loved it too. I just wish we had salsa lol

great recipe, the only change i made was to use a can of campbells cheddar cheese in a can(they also have nacho cheese) because it stays melted and creamy and i cooked my beans in bacon fat for extra flavor.

These were so good! I heated the chips up in the oven for a few minutes on a cookie sheet before assembling the nachos.

This made great nachos.......... I used the recipe for slims bad attitude nacho sauce in place of the ground beef this recipe calls for, but I kept the rest of the recipe as stated. Topped with shredded lettuce, diced tomato and diced green and red onions, also salsa and sour cream. So very good!!

I am vegetarian. We make this recipe but use Boca crumbles instead of beef. We add chili powder, cumin and garlic powder to the meat and onions as we cook it. I love this recipe :)

I added taco seasoning to the beef. I mixed the refried beans with salsa and that helped with spreading. The nachos were tasty, but I did not bake the meat because the chips manage to get soggy. I baked the chips for about 10 min on 350 degrees. before I added the toppings and placed them in the microwave

Good, versatile and easy. I like the taco seasoning in the meat for added flavor. I HATE soggy nachos so I LOVED Linda McClean's suggestion to put the chips in the oven first to crisp, really helps with the soggy problem. Thanks you!

My husband is a big nacho fan and he liked these a lot. I didn't care for them, but I am not a big fan of nachos in general. Our 2- and 4- yr olds did not care for them either. I took other reviewers suggestions and added taco seasoning to the meat, heated the beans in advance (they still did not spread well) and then heated the chips in the oven for a few minutes first, but they still got soggy. 4 stars since my nacho fan husband liked them, but even he didn't think they were the best nachos ever.

Pretty good nachos and easy to change things depending on your taste. My boys want me to make this dish for Superbowl.

I used taco seasoning mix on the beef and followed the other suggestions of cooking the chips first at 350 for 10 minutes. Then I just added the meat and toppings and put them back in the oven until the cheese had melted. It was delicious. We actually ate this as a dinner meal.

As written, this is ok -- a good basic recipe, but kind of bland, which is why I only gave it 3 stars. To perk it up a bit, I followed others' suggestions, by adding taco seasoning to the meat & baking the chips at 350 for about 8 minutes. I prepared 6 separate plates. On top of the chips, I thinly layered the beans (which were heated first) & meat. I topped that with nacho cheese salsa warmed in the microwave, then mild tomato salsa, chopped green onions, sliced black olives, some chopped tomato, shredded cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream. I served extras of the chips & toppings on the side, along with hot sauce and sliced jalapeno peppers for the more adventurous. There were no leftovers! Next time, I will add shredded lettuce to the mix.

Excellent recipe for Nachos. Quick, easy and oh so tasty. I made the taco seasoning from this site, and also included on the nachos, tomatillos, avocados, a green sauce(tomatillo) and green onions. The best nachos ever. Thanks Charlie.

I followed the advice of others and added taco seasoning to the meat and baked them as opposed to microwaving because I wanted crispy chips. After I browned and drained the meat I stirred in the beans because I thought it would be difficult to spread them directly on the chips. They are delicious and filling, thanks!
