One Pot Cheesy Nachos.
We love these one pot nachos! The bottom layer is a taco-seasoned ground beef, green chile and pinto bean mixture, topped with tons of cheese and chips. Bake until melty and golden, then serve hot! Best nachos ever.
Oh yes, you heard me right!!
Nachos. One Pot. ONE POT NACHOS!!
These are DIVINE. Layers of taco-spiced beef, green chile, pinto beans and corn, topped with tons of cheese, crunchy huge tortilla chips and more cheese. Then alllll the toppings.
YES.
When I say this is one of the best things I’ve ever made?? Not joking. Not even close.
It’s quite possible that I’ve now moved on from sheet pan nachos. Because these one pot nachos have totally blown everyone’s mind.
They are hearty. They are so super flavorful. And they are a fun way to serve nachos – plus, you can always throw extra tortilla chips next to them.
The most fun part of these is that the tortilla chips are set down into the nachos and the melted cheese holds them in place. They are SO good.
I was worried that the chips would get soggy in the beef mixture, but they really don’t. They get slightly softer, but barely – and if you’re a fan of chilaquiles, then you’ll love them.
Seriously, we could not stop eating these. They are out of this world. So much so that I’m making them again tonight for the fourth time. We are obsessed!
Here’s what goes into our pan:
Ground beef. You can use ground turkey too!
Some taco spices and tomato paste. This makes all the difference.
Diced green chiles! Can’t go without them.
Pinto beans. You can use black or kidney or whatever you prefer.
Corn. I just use frozen corn! Stir in a cup and it’s super easy.
All the cheese. I like a mix of sharp cheddar and monterey jack. I like to grate my own because it melts the best – however the only packaged cheese I use regularly is Tillamook farm shreds. They are awesome.
Then, it’s time for the chips. Stick them all around the pan, just the very edge into the mixture.
Bake everything together, just for 12 or 15 minutes. The cheese melts. The chips get toastier. The whole thing marries together and the flavor is wild. They make your house smell amazing too.
I just need a nacho candle in my life. (more…)
