Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 pound ground bison or beef
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces corn tortilla chips
1 cup fresh salsa verde, divided
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
3 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 avocado, sliced
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
Sour cream

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 400°. In a large frying pan, heat oil over high heat. Cook onion, stirring often, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add bison and cook, stirring well to break up meat, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Season with pepper.
2

Meanwhile, lay half the tortilla chips evenly in the bottom of a shallow baking dish. Spread half of bison mixture over chips. Pour 1/3 cup salsa over the meat, followed by half the cheese. Repeat layers with 1/3 cup more salsa and remaining meat and cheese. Bake until cheese melts and chips start to brown, about 6 minutes.
3

Serve nachos with lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, remaining 1/3 cup salsa, and the sour cream.
