Stir in the taco seasoning, water, and black beans. Simmer for approximately 5 minutes or until the water is mostly evaporated.

Meanwhile, spread tortilla chips onto a baking sheet. Top with half of the cheese, the beef mixture, and then the remaining cheese. Sprinkle with half of the green onions.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Remove the pan from the oven and add the remaining green onions & desired toppings. Serve with salsa and sour cream.
