- 1.23 ml red pepper flakes
- 0.25 ml hot sauce
- 2.46 ml salt
- 9.85 ml ground black pepper
- 9.85 ml dried oregano (Mexican oregano is the best, but Italian works, too)
- 7.39 ml ground cumin
-
For cheese sauce
- 226.79 g Velveeta cheese, cut into small cubes (this is approximate depending on how much yummy cheesiness you want)
- 236.59 ml salsa (also approximate. add enough to spice up the Velveeta)
-
Toppings
- sliced green onion, both white and green parts
- sliced black olives
- guacamole or sliced avocado
- sour cream
- tortilla chips (We use Mission triangle chips because they're durable)
directions
- Brown beef in skillet with all of the spices. Adjust spice according to taste. Drain fat.
- Combine Velveeta and salsa in a bowl. Microwave, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted.
- Arrange a layer, or mound, of chips on a plate, and top with meat first, then cheese (acts like glue so meat doesn't roll off the chip when it's on the way to your mouth), then toppings.
- ENJOY!

I didn't think the meat mixture was too spicy at all - must be a subjective taste I guess.. Anyhow - I loved these nachos! I much prefer the cheese sauce over melted cheese, which hardens quickly and leaves you with one big welded nacho.. Velveeta is the best! I also used my own fresh-fried corn chips, which I suggest people do to get the most wonderful nacho ever. (Just slice up some fresh corn tortillas and deep-fry till crisp).. My toppings were diced tomato, green onion, sliced black olives and pickled jalapeno slices.. guac and sour cream. Delicious.
