Swap in lean ground pork, turkey, or chicken for the beef, if you prefer. You can also make these vegetarian with a plant-based ground meat alternative.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Tortilla chips

32 chip(s)

Uncooked 93% lean ground beef

8 oz

Dried oregano

¾ tsp

Table salt

½ tsp, or more to taste

Canned diced tomatoes with onion and garlic

¾ cup(s), or fire-roasted

Canned refried black beans

cup(s)

Shredded reduced fat Mexican-style cheese blend

½ cup(s)

Tomato

1 medium, finely chopped

Scallions

4 large, finely chopped

Jalapeño pepper

2 medium, finely chopped (or to taste; do not touch seeds with bare hands)

Instructions

  1. Preheat broiler to high. Arrange tortilla chips on a nonstick baking sheet in a single layer but close together; set aside.
  2. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add beef and cook until browned, breaking up meat as it cooks, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with oregano and salt; stir in canned tomatoes and beans. Cook until heated through, stirring occasionally, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Spoon beef mixture over chips; sprinkle with cheese. Broil until cheese melts, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove from broiler; sprinkle with chopped tomatoes, scallions, and jalapeños.
  4. Serving size: 8 topped chips
