Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 pounds bell peppers ((or mini sweet peppers))
  • 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese ((shredded))
  • 10 cherry tomatoes ((sliced or halved))
  • 1 jalapeño pepper ((sliced))
  • 1/4 cup cilantro ((finely chopped))
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup guacamole

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Add the ground beef, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, breaking up until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Place the bell pepper pieces, cut side up, on a baking sheet, spreading out as much as possible.
  • Fill each pepper with the ground beef mixture. Top with the cheddar cheese.
  • Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted. You want the peppers to be warm, but still crisp.
  • Remove the nachos from the oven and top with slices of cherry tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, cilantro, sour cream and guacamole. See notes for more topping suggestions.
