- 30 tortilla scoops or chips of choice
- 1/2 cup ground beef cooked with taco seasoning, about 1/4lb
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella
- jalapeño sliced, as desired
- green onions sliced, as desired
- 1/2 avocado cubed
- cilantro roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup salsa
- 1/4 cup sour cream
Arrange your chips in a single layer on a microwavable plate. Add a bit of ground beef to each chip then top with a generous amount of cheese. Add one slice of jalapeño and a pinch of sliced green onions to each chip.
Microwave (1-2 minutes, depending on microwave) until cheese is melty, but not over cooked and crispy. You want the cheese to be still stringy. I start with 1 minute and then do 30 second intervals until it’s melted to my liking.
Top each chip with a cube of avocado, a sprinkle of cilantro, and a dab each of sour cream and salsa. Enjoy!
