Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • 1 (18 ounce) package tortilla chips
  • 1 ½ pounds cooked, Mexican-seasoned ground beef
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
  • 3 medium jalapeno peppers, thinly sliced
  • 3 cups pico de gallo
  • 1 (16 ounce) package shredded medium Cheddar cheese
  • 3 cups queso blanco dip, warmed
  • ¼ head iceberg lettuce, shredded
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon water, or as needed
  • 2 stalks scallions, chopped

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.

Step 2
Arrange a layer of tortilla chips on the tray. Sprinkle 1/2 of the cooked beef in a layer over the chips (don't drown the chips!) then layer with 1/3 of the beans, 1/3 of the jalapeno peppers, 1/3 of the pico de gallo, and 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese; drizzle 1/3 of the queso blanco over top. Repeat layers once more, starting with chips and ending with queso blanco. Cover with aluminum foil.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for 5 more minutes.

Step 4
Remove from the oven and transfer nachos to a platter. Top with shredded lettuce and remaining beans, jalapeno peppers, and pico de gallo.

Step 5
Stir sour cream with just enough water to thin slightly; drizzle over the nachos. Drizzle remaining queso blanco over top and sprinkle with scallions. Arrange remaining chips around the edges of the platter.
