Easy Vegetarian Nachos

Versión en español

I love chips and nachos, and this dish saves me when I do not desire to cook and eat a normal dinner.  I use salsa from a jar instead of guacamole or pico de gallo sauce if I have little time. As you see, you can suit your taste and available time.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325F or 160C.
2. In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat and brown the onion, occasionally stirring for 5 minutes. Add the ground beef, and cook about 5 minutes longer. If you see a lot of fat, drain before adding seasonings—season with salt, pepper, cumin, and paprika. Add the beans: if canned, rinse them before. Add a little hot water if necessary. Cook for 5 minutes, crushing some beans.
   
3. In a dish, place a layer of tortilla chips, then a layer of meat with beans. A thin layer of grated cheese, repeat two more times. Finish with a layer of cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted, 12-15 minutes.
   
4. Remove and immediately place the salsa or pico de gallo on top and chopped avocado or guacamole.
   
5. Serve immediately.
