Beef Nachos recipe ~ theoatmealdiaries

32 item(s) baked low fat tortilla chips

2 spray(s) cooking spray

6 oz uncooked 93% lean ground beef

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp table salt, or more to taste

3/4 cup(s) canned diced tomatoes, with adobe (smoky/spicy) or chipolte (hot)

2/3 cup(s) canned refried black beans

1/2 cup(s) low fat shredded cheddar cheese, or Mexican cheese blend

1/2 cup(s) uncooked scallion(s), finely sliced

2 medium jalapeño pepper(s), finely minced (or to taste; do not touch seeds with bare hands)

Preheat broiler to high. Arrange tortilla chips on a nonstick baking sheet in a single layer but close together; set aside.
Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add beef and cook until browned, breaking up meat as it cooks, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with oregano and salt; stir in tomatoes and beans. Cook until heated through, stirring occasionally, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Spoon beef mixture over chips; sprinkle with cheese. Broil until cheese melts, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove from broiler; sprinkle with scallions and jalapenos. Yields 4 chips with toppings per serving.
