How to Make the Ultimate Nachos

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350F. Prep a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.

For the Pico de Gallo:

   Cover and refrigerate while preparing the rest of the ingredients to allow the flavors to develop.

For the Chipotle Cream:

1. 4

   Put chipotle chilis and sour cream in a blender and blend until well combined (you would still see specks of the chili but the mixture should be smooth). Set aside.

For the Taco Beef:

   Put the ground beef in a skillet on medium heat until it turns brown (approximately 7-8 minutes).
