STEAK NACHOS

I got way too excited about these! They are the perfect thing to make to celebrate your favorite teams this fall. We need comforting, delicious, decadent meals right now that can be eaten with your hands if you ask me. Steak nachos fit the bill just perfectly. I may not be the biggest fan of football, but I certainly love football parties and tailgating. The energy is fantastic, even if I still struggle with understanding all the football lingo.

STEAK NACHOS RECIPE

This steak nachos recipe is adapted from the Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book 16th Edition. Back in high school, I was a cheerleader and cheered my school’s team on, but I never really cared for football. My favorite thing to eat at the games were the conventional melted cheese nachos with the jalapenos. I wanted to put a nachos recipe on the blog, but I wanted something a little more sophisticated than those old school nachos from the high school football games. That’s where I got the inspiration to come up with this recipe.

HOW TO MAKE STEAK NACHOS

These steak nachos are pretty easy to make. The required ingredients are the following:
  1. chopped steak
  2. black or pinto beans
  3. chunky salsa
  4. tortilla chips
  5. shredded cheese (Monterey Jack and Colby cheeses)
Start by adding two-thirds of your tortilla chips to an ovenproof pan and set it aside. Next, cook your chopped steak over medium heat in a large skillet until brown and drain the fat.Then, add the beans and salsa to the chopped steak and add two-thirds of the mixture over the tortilla chips. Sprinkle one cup of cheese over the entire dish and bake for 10 minutes or until the cheese melts. It’s that easy!

    I can’t wait to give these nachos a try. I bought some at a restaurant here in Australia last week and I got a deep bowl of chips with a bit of sauce, a few beans and a pinch of cheese. I need to show them your photos!
