We all love a good nacho recipe. Chips topped with all sorts of yummy goodies. Here at Chic HQ we’re obsessed with Potato Nachos! Oven roasted potatoes topped with cheese, beef, black beans, guacamole, sour cream, tomatoes, and scallions! They’re the perfect show-stopping party appetizer and snack!
The first thing you have to do is roast the potatoes in a super hot oven. I cooked mine in a 450 degree F oven to get them super crispy.
Cook until completely browned and crispy on both sides. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
While the potatoes roast, you can make the guacamole that goes on top.
Set it off to the side and make the beef topping!
It’s just like taco meat filling, so feel free to use this recipe for tacos as well!
Once the meat has simmered for a few minutes, you can go ahead and assemble the nachos.
Top with your favorite toppings! We used sour cream, guacamole, tomatoes, scallions, and cilantro!
Serve the nachos right away and enjoy!
