{The Food Files} Nacho Night!

Last night was nacho night at our house. It's a family favorite, and sooooo very easy, so I thought I'd share the recipe with you all! 

Ingredients

ground beef
shredded cheese
tortilla chips
ro-tel (diced tomatoes and green chilies)
pinto beans
jalapenos (opt)
sour cream (opt)
salsa (opt)
guacamole (opt)

Directions
Brown the ground beef and your choice of seasoning (I use salt and pepper). Drain the can of pinto beans and add to the beef along with the can of Ro-tel. Stir the mixture and let it cook until the juice from the tomatoes evaporates and all is warmed thoroughly.

Spread tortilla chips out on a baking sheet, cover with shredded cheese, and place under broiler on high and watch for the cheese to melt. If you like your nachos spicy, at this point you can add a jalapeno slice to each chip. Cover with meat and bean mixture. Serve with sour cream, salsa, and guacamole if you like.

See, easy! And it's a crowd pleaser. If you're feeding the little ones, try serving them up a bowl of the meat and beans (my kids love that). Or if you're trying to eat low carb, the meat and beans also make a tasty salad topper!

I hope you enjoy!
