No-Bake Nachos Supreme

For all those nacho fans, here's a treat. This little number will definitely be a crowd pleaser at any friendly get-together. There's no right or wrong food brands to use EXCEPT the tortilla chips. Tostitos corn tortillas with lime are a must have for this dish. I remember the first time I tasted them, by the time I remembered that I had something to dip them in the bag was half gone. That's how good they are. So, pleeeeaaaaasssseeee try them. If you don't become hooked then...nah, you're gonna love them. BTW - this recipe feeds 6-8 people.

1 lb. ground beef or chicken
8 oz. shredded mexican or taco cheese
8 oz. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 packet of taco seasoning
1 avocado chopped
1 medium onion chopped
1 can of sliced black olives
1 jar of jalapeno peppers
1 can of black beans
2 large tomatoes chopped
12 oz. tub of sour cream
10 oz. jar of salsa
2 cups of guacamole (optional)
1 bag of Tostitos corn tortillas with lime

In a large skillet combine taco seasoning and ground beef and cook until brown. Drain ground beef and pour onto a shallow platter. Use the remaining ingredients and layer in any order you like, however your last layer should be the cheese. (I layer mines in the following order: black beans, onions, tomatoes, black olives, jalapeno peppers, avocado, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, cheese). DO NOT BAKE! Grab some tortillas and ENJOY!!

If you choose to use chicken I suggest using boneless, skinless chicken tenderloins. Chop them up, season with taco seasoning, and sautee in EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) until no longer pink.
