1 | Preheat broiler. |
2 | Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil (makes clean-up easier, throw away the foil instead of scrubbing cheese off the cookie sheet). |
3 | Spread bean dip on each tortilla chip. |
4 | Place each chip onto the cookie sheet until the cookie sheet is full. |
5 | Cover the chips with shredded cheese and jalapeno slices. |
6 | Place under the broiler until cheese melts. |
Step-by-Step Instructions:
-
Preheat broiler: Start by preheating your broiler. This will ensure that your nachos get that perfectly melted cheese topping.
-
Prepare the baking sheet: Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. This step is crucial for easy cleanup later on. Trust me, you’ll thank yourself for this tip!
-
Layer the chips: Take your tortilla chips and spread them out evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they’re arranged in a single layer to ensure even melting of the cheese.
-
Add the bean dip: Now, it’s time to add the flavorful bean dip onto each tortilla chip. You can be generous with it, as it’s the base of your nachos and adds a delicious creamy texture.
-
Arrange the toppings: Place each chip onto the cookie sheet until the cookie sheet is full. Now, it’s time to load up those nachos with the good stuff! Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the bean-dipped chips. If you like a bit of heat, don’t forget to add some jalapeno slices on top.
-
Broil until cheese melts: Carefully place the baking sheet under the broiler. Keep a close eye on them, as they can quickly go from perfectly melted to overly crispy if left unattended. Once the cheese is gooey and bubbly, your nachos are ready to be devoured!
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve hot and crispy straight from the oven for the ultimate indulgence.
- Pair with your favorite cold beverage, like a refreshing beer or a zesty margarita.
- Customize with additional toppings like sour cream, guacamole, or salsa for an extra burst of flavor.
