Ingredients

  • 10-12 Tortilla chips*
  • 1/2 cup of shredded cheese Mexican blend or your favorite shredded cheese
  • 2 tablespoons each of your favorite toppings: fully cooked ground beef drained black beans, sliced olives, bell peppers, jalapenos, or refried beans
  • Your favorite condiments for serving: salsa sour cream, avocado/guacamole, fresh cilantro.

Instructions

  • Line your air fryer basket or tray with parchment paper or aluminum foil. If you have an air fryer with a basket, fit the foil so that you make a sling for easy removal. 
  • Lay your tortilla chips in a single layer on the bottom of the fryer basket. Allow the edges of the chips to overlap slightly.
  • Sprinkle the chips with the shredded cheese and add your desired toppings.
  • Air fry the nachos at 390° for 4-5 minutes. Check the chips after 3 minutes to prevent burning.
  • Use your foil or parchment paper sling to easily lift the nachos out of the basket and onto a serving vessel.
  • Top with your favorite nacho condiments like salsa, avocado, and fresh cilantro.
  • Enjoy immediately.

Notes

*Depending on the model of your air fryer and the size of the basket or tray, you may have the capacity to add more chips. So go right ahead! You can easily adjust the ratio of cheese to accommodate the extra tortilla chips.
