Skillet Nachos

Dinner

My mom gave me a fundraiser cookbook, and this is the recipe I’ve used most. My whole family is on board. For toppings, think sour cream, tomatoes, jalapeno and red onion.

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
YIELD: 6 servings.

1 pound ground beef
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup fresh or frozen corn, thawed
3/4 cup uncooked instant rice
1/2 cup water
1 envelope taco seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
1 package (16 ounces) tortilla chips
Optional toppings: Sour cream, sliced fresh jalapenos, shredded lettuce and lime wedges

1. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking into crumbles; drain. Stir in tomatoes, corn, rice, water, taco seasoning and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until rice is tender and mixture is slightly thickened, 8-10 minutes.
2. Remove from heat; sprinkle with cheese. Let stand, covered, until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Divide tortilla chips among 6 plates; spoon beef mixture over chips. Serve with toppings as desired.
