Nachos In A Cup Recipes

Steps:

• Place the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until no longer pink. Add onion and cook until tender. Drain off grease. Stir in the contents of the seasoning packet and any water if needed in order to prepare according to package directions.
• When the meat is done cooking, add the bell pepper, jalapeno pepper and sliced mushrooms to the skillet, and lower heat to medium. Cook and stir until vegetables are about halfway cooked, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the cheese sauce until everything is evenly coated.
• Serve tortilla chips topped with the meat and cheese sauce, or serve buffet style where each person can top their own nachos.

Steps:

• Cook the ground beef on medium to high heat in a non stick pan until brown and no longer pink.
• Drain the ground beef and rinse your pan and add beef back to your pan.
• Pour the jar of Salsa into beef mixture and let simmer until the beef fully absorbs the sauce. The longer you let simmer the better it will taste.
• While the mixture is cooking, heat oven to 350 degrees and place a cooking sheet on any flat oven pan. Place the Tostitos scoop cups facing up in on the pan.
• Once the mixture is ready you can spoon it into Tostitos scoop cups and sprinkle with the cheddar cheese.
• Cook in the oven until the cheese is melted.
• Place each scoop cup on a platter and you can either leave sour cream or guacamole on the side or add to each cup.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread half the chips out in a large shallow casserole dish or on an ovenproof platter. Top with half the beans, in small spoonfuls, and scatter with half the chiles. Repeat with the remaining chips, beans, and chiles. Sprinkle the top of the nachos with the cheese. Bake until heated through and the cheese melts, about 3 to 5 minutes. Top the nachos with dollops of the sour cream and serve.
• Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place a deep-frying thermometer in the pot. Heat the oil over medium heat to 360 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, stack the tortillas, and cut the pile into sixths to make chips.
• Raise the heat to high. Working in batches, fry the chips, turning them with a skimmer or slotted spoon, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chips to a paper towel-lined pan to drain. (Return the oil to the proper temperature between batches.) Cool and season with salt. Serve.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Brush both sides of the tortillas with the oil. Stack the tortillas and cut the pile into sixths to make chips. Spread the chips out in a single layer on two large baking sheets and season with salt. Bake until golden brown and crisp, rotating the baking sheets once, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve.
• In a small bowl, mash two-thirds of the beans with a fork or potato masher. Reserve the whole beans separately.

Add the spices and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add the mashed beans and half the broth and cook, stirring frequently until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the whole beans and the remaining broth and simmer about 4 to 5 minutes more until thickened but not pasty. Season with the salt and pepper, and stir in the fresh coriander, if desired. Serve.

Once all of the cheese has been added, simmer for a few minutes, then stir in the garlic, vinegar and 1 tablespoon salt. Let the cheese sauce cool and thicken. Keep warm. (The cheese sauce can be made, cooled and refrigerated up to 1 day ahead and then reheated). Makes about 12 cups.
• Assemble the nachos: If making ahead and refrigerating the prepared ingredients in advance, let each bowl of ingredients sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour or microwave to just take the chill off. The green layer of scallions and cilantro is the exception: Keep refrigerated until using.
• Tape together two 7-foot lengths of parchment or wax paper to make one double-wide 7-foot sheet. Lay it, tape-side down, down the middle of a long table or countertop. Spread the chips out into a 1-foot-wide and 6-foot-long rectangle.
• Ladle about 3/4 of the cheese sauce (about 8 cups) all over the chips; reserve the remaining sauce to serve on the side. Starting at the left end of the rectangle, sprinkle the red block ingredients to cover a 12-inch square and top with the sliced Fresno chiles. Next to the red block, sprinkle the orange ingredients to cover another 12 inches. Next to the orange block, follow up with the yellow ingredients and top with the sliced pepperoncini. Next sprinkle the green ingredients and top with the avocado. Then do the purple ingredients, and finally finish the last 12 inches with the black ingredients.
