Ingredients

  • 4 large potatoes

  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup diced red onions
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives

  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup guacamole

  8. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the potatoes and top with the seasoned ground beef.
  9. Place the dish back in the oven for 5-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Remove from the oven and top the nachos with diced tomatoes, diced red onions, sliced black olives, jalapeno slices, chopped cilantro, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
  11. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
