Ingredients
Instructions
Spread corn chips on a baking sheet. Top corn chips with grated cheese or, if using, refried beans, beef, more grated cheese and sliced olives.
For the oven
Heat oven to 350°F (180°C)
Bake for 5-10 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
For the microwave
Microwave on medium-high for 3 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
Notes
For beef nachos, brown 1 lb ground beef and 1 onion, finely chopped, untill cooked. Season with salt and pepper and drain of the fat. Use as topping. Goes well with refried beans.
Toasted pita bread triangles or bread traingles also come out well when prepared nacho style.
Adults may appreciate the heat from 1 jalapeño chili, thnly sliced, but this may be too strong for children and best avoided.
