Beef And Bean Nachos

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. 2

   In a large sautee pan on medium-high heat, add the oil. When hot, add half of the chopped onion and fry for a few minutes, until starting to look translucent.

3. 3

   Add the ground beef, and stir, breaking up the meat until it no longer looks pink.

4. 4

   Add the cumin, chili powder, oregano and salt & pepper, and cook for 1 more minute.

5. 5

   Add the black beans, and mix until heated through. Put to the side.

6. 6

   In a separate small bowl, mix together the tomatoes, cilantro, and the remaining half of the chopped onion. Toss together, add a teaspoon of olive oil, and the juice of the remaining half lime. Add salt and pepper to taste.

7. 7

   In a large heatproof dish, start layering your nachos. I like to do this in 2 layers. Start with half the bag of chips, add half your beef and beans, and a cup of shredded cheddar. Repeat one more time, ending with your cheddar.

8. 8

   Place the dish in the oven, and bake until the cheddar is bubbly, about 5-10 minutes. Keep an eye on it so that your chips don't over toast.

9. 9

   When the nachos are done, remove them from the oven. Add the salsa you've just made, avocado, and sour cream and serve.
