Dice 1/2 cup of red onion, removing any brown spots.

Dice 1 cup of beef steak tomato into chunks.

Slice 1/2 cup of jalapeños, removing most of the seeds for less spice.

Chop some green onions, using both the green and white parts.

Slice a few olives, using as much or as little as desired.

Grate 2 cups of cheddar cheese, preferably freshly shredded.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 pound of ground beef, cooking until browned.

Drain excess fat from the skillet after the beef is cooked.

Layer tortilla chips on a baking sheet.

Spread black beans over the tortilla chips (not mentioned in the video but implied).

Spoon the cooked ground beef over the chips and beans.

Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese generously over the nachos.

Add sliced jalapeños over the cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10-12 minutes.

Remove from the oven and top with diced tomatoes, green onions, and olives.

Serve with salsa and guacamole on the side.
