Lay half of the tortilla chips out on a baking sheet or oven-safe skillet. Spread half of the beef mixture over the chips and top the chips with half of the mixed cheeses. Sandwich the spread with the remainder of the tortilla chips. Use the remaining beef and cheese to create a second layer. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. While the nachos are baking, combine the avocado, tomatoes, red onions, cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil in a separate bowl. When the nachos are done baking, add the avocado mixture on top. Serve with sour cream.
