# What You'll Need:

→ Chips and Cheeses

01 - 1 big pack of corn chips (roughly 10-12 oz)
02 - 2 cups grated cheddar or cheddar-Jack mix
03 - 1 cup grated mozzarella (if you want that cheese pull)

→ Meats and Extras

04 - 1 cup pre-cooked chicken or beef (skip if you want)
05 - 1 small red onion, diced small
06 - 1 medium tomato, cut into chunks
07 - 1 jalapeño, cut into rings (leave out if you can't handle heat)
08 - 1/2 cup sliced black olives
09 - 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
10 - 1 teaspoon chili powder
11 - Salt and pepper how you like it
12 - 1 tablespoon olive oil (for a light drizzle)

→ Side Dips

13 - 1/2 cup sour cream
14 - 1/2 cup salsa
15 - 1/4 cup guacamole

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Crank the oven to 400°F (200°C).
02 - Got beef or chicken? Brown it in a pan. Add some salt, pepper, and that chili powder. Drain off the grease and put it aside.
03 - Cut up your onion, tomato, jalapeño and olives. Shred your cheese if it's not already done.
04 - Put a nice even layer of corn chips on a big baking tray or dish that can go in the oven.
05 - Throw half your cheese on the chips. Then add your meat, onion, tomato, jalapeños, and olives.
06 - Dump the rest of your cheese all over everything so it's nicely covered.
07 - Stick it in the oven for 10-15 minutes until that cheese gets all melty and bubbly.
08 - Toss some cilantro on top. Serve it right away with sour cream, salsa, and guac on the side.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Want crunchy edges? Stick it under the broiler for a minute or two at the end.
02 - Don't eat meat? Throw in some black beans instead.
03 - Go for a sturdy baking sheet so your chips don't burn on the bottom.
04 - Cheese you grate yourself melts way better than the bagged stuff.
