Super Nachos

Appetizers Level of Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:

1 pound lean ground beef 2 teaspoons chili powder 2 teaspoons cumin Pinch of salt 1 small can refried beans or bean dip 1 10 or 12-ounce bag corn tortilla chips 1 1/4 pounds Monterey Jack or Mozzarella cheese, grated 1 large onion, chopped 2 tomatoes, chopped 1 6-ounce can black olives, chopped

Mixing Instructions:

Brown the ground beef in a medium skillet. Drain. Add the chili powder, cumin and salt. Set aside for a moment.   Spread a thin layer of refried beans or bean dip over the bottom of a platter or shallow, heat-proof bowl to anchor the first layer of chips.   Then spread a layer of chips over the beans, top with a layer of cheese, ground beef, onion, tomato and olives. Repeat until all the ingredients are used. Or, since this recipe usually makes about 4 layers, you can divide all the toppings into 4 portions for even layering.   Microwave on high until heated through, about 10 minutes, or bake at 375° for 20-30 minutes. Serve warm.
