Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step ensures a perfect baking environment, helping the cheese melt beautifully and crisping those tortilla chips just right.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Allow the oil to warm up for about a minute before adding your ground beef, making sure it sizzles to start the cooking process!
- Cook the ground beef with cumin and chili powder. Stir occasionally until the meat is browned and fragrant, about 7-10 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when it’s no longer pink!
- Layer tortilla chips in a baking dish. Spread them out evenly, ensuring every chip gets its fair share of toppings. Then, pile on the cooked beef, black beans, salsa, and shredded cheese.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Keep an eye on it! You want the cheese to be melted and slightly bubbly, giving it that irresistible homemade allure.
- Top with diced avocado just before serving. This fresh touch adds a creamy balance to the warm, spiced flavors below, making each bite delightful.

Notes
Optional: Drizzle with sour cream for an extra creamy finish. Store leftover nachos in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Freeze assembled but unbaked nachos for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven to maintain crispy texture.
