3 (1 ounce) packages Ortega taco seasoning
2 cups water

1 (12 ounce) jar Ortega medium cheese sauce (warmed)
1/4 head medium chopped lettuce

Steps:

  • Brown the beef in large skillet and drain (in colander rinsing with hot water if possible to reduce fat intake).
  • Return to skillet with water, beans, taco seasoning, onion and green chilies.
  • Cook until everything is mixed well under medium-low heat stirring often until a low boil is achieved.
  • Reduce heat cover and simmer 10 minutes stirring every couple minutes.
  • The construction.
  • On a large plate cover with tortilla chips and dollop generous portions of the meat mixture on chips.
  • Now pour over WARMED cheese sauce.
  • Top with the lettuce next, then what ever order you want of the other veggies except the JP's.
  • Then add the JP's AS MUCH AS YOU CAN MUSTER YEA!
  • A couple dollops of sour cream and you are ready for a very filling, spicy treat that you will not forget--EVER.
  • You should also consider topping with some of my guacamole.
  • You are welcome.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your nachos taste their best. Use ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and a flavorful cheese blend.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese: Nachos are all about the cheese, so don't be afraid to use a generous amount. Choose a cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Monterey Jack.
  • Layer your toppings: To create a truly delicious nacho, layer your toppings in the following order: chips, cheese, beans, meat, vegetables, and salsa. This will ensure that each bite is packed with flavor.
  • Bake your nachos: Baking your nachos in the oven is the best way to achieve a gooey, melted cheese and crispy chips. Keep an eye on them, as they can burn easily.
  • Serve your nachos immediately: Nachos are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, while the cheese is still melted and the chips are still crispy. If you're making them ahead of time, reheat them in the oven before serving.

Conclusion:

Mama's Nachos Grande is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It can be served as an appetizer, main course, or even a late-night snack. With its combination of crispy chips, gooey cheese, and flavorful toppings, it's sure to be a hit with everyone.
