Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 yellow onion diced
- 2 packages 16 oz each sturdy tortilla chips
- 1 can refried beans
- 16 oz shredded cheese cheddar and Monterey Jack mix
- 3 Roma tomatoes diced
- 2-3 green onions sliced
- 1 packet taco seasoning or homemade blend: 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp paprika
- 3/4 cup water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cook the beef: In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef with diced onion for about 8 minutes. Drain excess fat.
- Season the beef: Return the beef to the skillet, sprinkle with taco seasoning, and add 3/4 cup of water. Simmer on low until most of the liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes.
- Prepare the baking sheets: Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread a generous layer of tortilla chips on each sheet.
- Add the beans: Dollop refried beans across the chips, using half the can for each sheet.
- Layer the beef: Divide the seasoned ground beef between the two trays, distributing evenly over the chips.
- Top with cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the beef and chips.
- Bake: Place baking sheets in the oven and bake for 15 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Add fresh toppings: Remove from the oven and immediately top with diced tomatoes and sliced green onions.
- Serve: Serve hot and fresh, and enjoy!
Notes
Use thick tortilla chips to avoid sogginess. For a smaller crowd, halve the recipe. Customize with toppings like avocado, jalapeños, or sour cream. For a vegetarian option, substitute ground beef with a plant-based alternative or grilled vegetables.
