MINI TACO NACHOS



Mini Taco Nachos image

Everyone always loves these individual nachos. You can make the meat mixture up ahead of time and store in the fridge in tupperware until ready to use. The meat mixture freezes well too. If you are short on spices, just use a taco packet instead. I often use leftover taco meat that I need to use up.

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 red onion, diced
2 serrano peppers, minced
2 teaspoons chili powder (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander (or to taste)

1/4 cup beer
1 bunch green onion, sliced
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef in a large skillet until browned and cooked through. Drain grease if necessary. Add onions and peppers and saute with meat until soft, about 3-5 minutes.

  • ***At this point, you could store meat mixture in the fridge until ready to use or allow mixture to cool slightly before starting nacho assembly. ***You could also skip those first 2 steps if you have leftover taco meat!

  • Spread out tortilla chips on baking sheet in rows. (I can usually get about 7 rows of 5 on each baking sheet).
  • Fill each tortilla chip with 1-2 teaspoons of meat mixture. Then top each chip with 1-2 teaspoons of shredded cheese. Finally, sprinkle green onions on top of cheese.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 5-7 minutes.
