Notes

  • Optional Variations:
  • While I love these sheet pan nachos just the way they're written, there's plenty of room for customization. Here are a few variations to consider:
  • Nutrition does not include toppings.
  • Here are some other topping options:

    pickled red onions shredded lettuce sliced olives guacamole

  • pickled red onions
  • shredded lettuce
  • sliced olives
  • guacamole
  • Grain-Free Nachos - If you have a corn allergy in the crowd, consider using french fries or tater tots as your base in place of tortilla chips like in this Pork Green Chile Loaded Nacho Fries recipe.
  • Vegetarian Nachos - Use meat-free crumbles in place of the ground beef, or simply add extra black beans to the mix.
  • Lighter Nachos - Using lighter ground turkey, ground chicken, or ground bison can save you a few calories. You can also swap in greek yogurt for sour cream.
