DELICIOUS NACHOS
Great quick snack and very delicious. My DH and I will often have these for lunches on weekends or when I just don't feel like cooking. I never measure what I'm putting on this; I just put what looks right - so my measurements are estimates. Very easy to adjust to individual tastes - for example I don't like tomatoes and my DH doesn't like black olives so those two items get put on separate halves of the nachos.

Steps:
- Spread the chips evenly on a plate.
- Spread the beans on top of the chips. If you use refried beans, put little globs of them on the chips around the plate - these don't spread easily.
- Cover with the cheese.
- Sprinkle the chopped jalapenos over the cheese.
- Microwave for 1 minute or until all the cheese is melted.
- Spread the salsa over the nachos(try not to get too watery of salsa b/c that will make your chips watery).
- Spread the sour cream over the salsa.
- Spread the avocado, black olives, and tomatoes over the sourcream.
- Enjoy! We usually end up making a second plate.

DELICIOUS NACHOS SUPREME
Perfect party food! --- this is one of my all time favorite nacho recipes that I have made many times in the past, and I guarantee you will love this! --- all amounts may be adjusted to taste and double the recipe if desired but keep the garlic no more than 2 tablespoons, if you really want to go all out add in a can of drained black beans to the ground beef mixture! 1/2 pound Italian sausages with casings removed can be mixed with the ground beef if desired, to turn up the heat use a package of taco seasoning mix or spicy salsa and add in cayenne or dried chili flakes --- for the best flavor make certain to brown the meat well :)

Steps:
- Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C) for about 3 minutes. Line air fryer basket with foil or a parchment liner, and spray with cooking spray.
- Spread out chips in the fryer basket in a single layer, slightly overlapping chips, so the cheese doesn't melt through. Lightly dust chips with taco seasoning to get a pop of taco flavor, and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Don't overcrowd the basket.
- Top cheese with olives and tomatoes and place basket in the air fryer.
- Air-fry until cheese is melted and chips are starting to slightly brown on the edges, 5 to 6 minutes. Watch closely to be sure the cheese doesn't burn. If necessary, add additional time until you reach your preferred crispness.
- Move nachos to a plate, garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve immediately.
