How to Make Mexican Supreme Ground Beef Nachos

My Mexican Beef

These easy baked nachos are loaded with ground beef and classic vegetable toppings and the tortilla chips are baked with a browned ground beef and refried bean topping, and a generous layer use shredded pepper jack cheese, cheddar jack, or a mexican blend instead of plain cheddar cheese.

Recipe Summary My Mexican Beef

This is a pared-down version of a traditional Mexican shredded beef supper. I substitute shaved steak for the more time-consuming brisket and my family likes it even more. By using pantry items, I have created a delicious meal suitable for even the busiest weeknight. Served over rice or warm tortillas, this is one meal your family will be asking for again and again!
