- 1 28 oz. can Bush's Original Baked Beans
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 15 oz. can corn, drained
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- Corn tortilla chips gluten-free
- Optional: sour cream salsa, cilantro and chopped tomatoes
In a frying pan, brown the beef
When browned, add corn and beans
Meanwhile, spread tortilla chips onto a baking sheet and sprinkle with cheese
Spoon bean and beef mixture onto gluten-free corn tortilla chips and cheese
Broil everything for 2 minutes (or bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees)
Top with gluten-free sour cream, salsa and fresh tomatoes
Always check the chips you purchase to make sure they are gluten-free.
I personally like to save the toppings for after they have baked. This gives the nachos a fresh taste and touch. Olives, jalapeños and peppers can be added before the baking though if you prefer.
You can bake nachos at a lower heat of 350 degrees for 15 minutes or you can broil them for 2 minutes for extra crunch. Either way is great, it really just depends on how quickly you need them.
Top tip: Squeeze some fresh lime juice on top of your epic beef nachos for extra flavor.
