Notes
- You can customize toppings based on your preferences including adding cooked ground meat or different types of beans.
- For extra crispy chips, avoid layering them too thickly on the sheet pan.
- Use a mix of cheeses like mozzarella or pepper jack for different flavor profiles.
- To make this recipe vegetarian, omit any meat toppings.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the nachos while the cheese is melted and warm.
