Ingredients:

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 can (16 ounces) fat-free refried beans
  • 1 jar (16 ounces) salsa (choose a low-sodium option)
  • 1 can (6 ounces) sliced ripe olives, drained
  • 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Tortilla chips (choose whole grain or low-carb options)
  • Optional toppings: Sliced ripe olives, chopped green onions, diced tomatoes

Instructions:

‍

1. Cook the Ground Beef:

‍

In a large skillet, cook the lean ground beef and chopped onion over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is tender. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.

‍

2. Season the Beef:

Stir in the chili powder and salt, mixing well to coat the beef evenly with the seasonings. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.

‍

3. Assemble the Nachos:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

Arrange the tortilla chips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon the refried beans evenly over the chips, followed by the seasoned ground beef mixture.

Pour the salsa over the beef, spreading it out to cover the nachos. Sprinkle the sliced olives and shredded cheddar cheese over the top.

‍

4. Bake the Nachos:

Place the assembled nachos in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

‍

5. Garnish and Serve:

Remove the nachos from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions, sliced ripe olives, and diced tomatoes, if desired.

Serve your Protein-Rich Low-Calorie Blue-Ribbon Beef Nachos hot and enjoy every flavorful bite!
