This makes a very thick chili. For a thinner chili, omit the tomato paste. For a chili soup, omit tomato paste and sauce and use 1 can (16 ounces) tomatoes with liquid and add 1/2 cup water and 1 beef bouillon cube.

Tips:

  • Using a cast-iron skillet will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the nachos from burning.
  • Be sure to preheat the skillet over medium-high heat before adding the chips. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you add too many chips, they will not cook evenly.
  • Layer the nachos with your favorite toppings. Be sure to include a variety of textures and flavors.
  • Broil the nachos for a few minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve the nachos immediately, while they are still hot and crispy.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
