Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Spread the tortilla chips evenly across the baking sheet, ensuring they don't overlap too much to allow even coverage.

Step 4

Distribute the cooked ground beef, black beans, pico de gallo, and sliced black olives over the cheese layer.

Step 5

Top with the remaining cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, making sure to cover the toppings thoroughly.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and bubbling.

Step 7

Remove the nachos from the oven and immediately sprinkle the chopped green onions and pickled jalapeños over the top.

Step 8

Dollop sour cream and guacamole around the nachos or serve them on the side for dipping.

Step 9

If desired, garnish with fresh cilantro leaves for a pop of color and extra flavor.

Step 10

Serve the nachos warm straight from the baking sheet or transfer to a platter for sharing. Enjoy with your favorite beverage!
