Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/4 cup water
- 4 cups tortilla chips
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup black beans (optional)
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped onions (optional)
- 1 jalapeño thinly sliced (optional)
- Sour cream as needed for serving
- Guacamole as needed for serving
- Cilantro as needed for serving
- Lime wedges as needed for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (or heat grill/campfire). If using the grill or campfire, prepare for direct heat.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain fat and stir in taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened.
- Tear large sheets of aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
- Layer tortilla chips on the foil sheets. Top with cooked ground beef, black beans, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, olives, onions, and jalapeños (if using).
- Fold and seal each foil packet, leaving room for steam to circulate. Poke small holes in the top to vent.
- Place foil packets on a baking sheet, grill, or campfire. Bake for 10–15 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Carefully open packets (watch out for steam), then top with sour cream, guacamole, cilantro, and lime wedges if desired. Serve warm.
