Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1.5 tbsp mexican spice mix or taco seasoning
  • 1.5 cup frozen corn or canned corn drained
  • 1.5 cup cooked black beans or canned beans rinsed and well drained
  • 2.5 cup shredded cheese
  • tortilla chips
  • sour cream
  • jalapenos
  • green onions
  • salsa
  • guacamole

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook and crumble the ground beef in a skillet over medium high heat. My beef had almost no grease, however, if yours has a good bit, drain most of it off before continuing. Season generously with the Mexican Spice Mix as it is cooking and stir to coat well. Add the corn and beans and stir to combine. Cover with lid and cook for a couple minutes, until everything is warm.

  2. 2

    OVEN DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread tortilla chips across a large baking sheet (line with a silpat for easy cleanup). Top with the meat mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and bake for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese has melted.

  3. 3

    MICROWAVE DIRECTIONS: Place tortilla chips on individual plates and top with a scoop of the meat mixture spread across the chips. Sprinkle with cheese and then cook each plate for about 20 seconds, just until the cheese has melted.

  4. 4

    Serve with the toppings of your choice. Enjoy!

  5. 5

    FREEZER MEAL: The filling can be cooked, cooled and frozen until needed. Thaw in the refrigerator or reheat from frozen. Prepare nachos as directed above.
