The Best Nacho Recipe: Flavorful Ground Beef & Homemade Cheese Sauce Is What Nacho Dreams Are Made Of by 30Seconds Food

Serve nachos at your family get-together or while tailgating and you will be a hero. This easy ground beef and black bean nacho recipe can be assembled right before serving (you don't want soggy tortilla chips!) or put all the ingredients into bowls and make a nacho bar. Keep the ground beef and cheese warm in a slow cooker.

Cuisine: Mexican
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

Beans & Meat

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 can (16 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1/2 cup fire-roasted salsa or your favorite salsa
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 package taco seasoning (try this homemade taco seasoning recipe)

Cheese Topping

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1 cup half and half or whole milk 
• 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Nachos

• tortilla chips
• sour cream
• guacamole
• salsa
• pico de gallo
• chopped red onions
• jalapenos

Here's how to make it: 

1. To make the ground beef and bean topping, cook the beef until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the black beans, salsa, water and taco seasoning. Cook until water has absorbed, about 5 minutes. 
2. To make the cheese sauce, melt the butter in a saucepot. Whisk in the flour and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Pour in the half and half and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring, until it thickens up, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted over low heat. Add the chili powder. Remove from heat. (If cheese sauce is too thick, add a little more milk or half and half.)
3. To assemble the nachos, put tortilla chips onto a serving platter or into individual bowls. Top with the cheese sauce, ground beef and bean mixture, and then desired nacho toppings. Serving immediately.
