Scatter black beans and pickled jalapeños over the cheese layer.
5
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Drizzle with sour cream, spoonfuls of guacamole, and salsa. Serve immediately while hot.
Chef's Tips
- Chip Choice: Use sturdy restaurant-style tortilla chips to prevent sogginess.
- Cheese Tips: For extra meltiness, mix cheddar with Monterey Jack or pepper jack cheese.
- Protein Boost: Add seasoned ground beef, shredded chicken, or carnitas for a heartier version.
- Even Melting: Let cheese reach room temperature before sprinkling for more even melting.
- Freshness: Add cold toppings like sour cream and guacamole after baking to maintain freshness.
- Serving: Serve on a warm platter to keep nachos crispy longer.
