Cheeseburger Nachos

Cheeseburger Nachos — Comfort Meets Freshness

When cozy cravings call, these Cheeseburger Nachos answer. A golden, melty blend of hearty beef, black beans, and sweet corn layered over crisp tortilla chips — elevated with fresh greens and a creamy, savory cheese sauce. It’s weeknight comfort with a balanced twist.

Ingredients

• 1 lb lean ground beef

• 1 cup black beans, rinsed

• 1 cup sweet corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or roasted)

• 1 cup diced tomatoes (or Salsa-style mix)

• 1 cup chopped spinach or kale

• 1½ cups shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese

• ¼ cup milk or cream (for a smoother sauce)

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• ½ tsp smoked paprika (opt)

• Salt + pepper to taste

• Tortilla chips, for serving

Directions

1. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess oil.

2. Build the Base: Add black beans, corn, tomatoes, and greens to the skillet. Stir and simmer for 5 minutes, letting the flavors come together.

3. Melt & Blend: Reduce heat to low. Stir in the cheese and milk until creamy and smooth. Season with garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper.

4. Serve Simply: Spoon the warm cheeseburger mix over a layer of tortilla chips. Top with a sprinkle of fresh greens or diced avocado if desired.

For a lighter twist, swap half the cheese for nutritional yeast and use baked chips. Pair with cucumber-lime water or a green spritz for balance.
