The Best Nachos

The Best Nachos

Ingredients
1/2    pound ground beef
1/2    onion, chopped
1     (16-ounce) can refried beans
1     large bag thick corn tortilla chips
1.     tomato, diced
½.    Cup chili sauce
1    Cup of shredded Cheddar cheese.
½     cup salsa
¼      teaspoon chili powder
¼.     teaspoon cumin
¼      teaspoon paprika
¼      teaspoon salt
¼      teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F.

In a large skillet on medium heat, add ground beef and chopped onion, stirring occasionally to brown the meat and cook the onions.

Add seasoning, as the ground beef browns. Drain excess grease.

Add the refried beans and stir into the ground beef. Add salsa. Stir ingredients until well mixed.

Add more cumin and chili powder, to taste. Stir and simmer 5 minutes.

Place the chips on a oven proof plate. Spoon and sprinkle the ground beef mixture over the chips.

Top nachos with diced tomato, sliced jalapenos, black olives, and the chopped bottoms of the green onions. Sprinkle the top with cheese.

Slide the plates into the oven and let cook approximately 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the nachos heated through.

Remove from the oven.
Serve with sour cream, salsa.


P.S. I add milk to sour cream to make it spread easier.
