Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

  • 2 large baking potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 8 ounces ground beef

  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained

  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons water

  • 8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

  • ¼ cup shredded lettuce

  • 1 small tomato, chopped

  • ¼ cup sour cream

  • ¼ cup guacamole

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

  2. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to a large bowl. Add potato slices to the bowl; toss to coat in oil.

  3. Arrange potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet; sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until potato slices are golden brown, about 20 minutes.

  5. Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; add ground beef. Brown, breaking into crumbles as it cooks, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain excess grease.

  6. Stir black beans into ground beef, then stir in taco seasoning and water. Bring beef-bean mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until flavors have blended, about 10 minutes.

  7. Arrange potato slices on a serving platter; sprinkle with 1/2 Cheddar cheese. Top with meat-bean mixture; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cheese.

  8. Spread lettuce over nachos; garnish with tomato. Dollop on sour cream and guacamole.
