Nachos!

Tried my hand at doing Mexican for the first time ever and ended up with this.... 
 
The foundation and some homemade guacamole. I got NFI what guacamole is supposed to taste like, never done it before....it ended up tasting flat, like it was missing something.I noticed some recipes include Tabasco. So I added a good dash of Tabasco and a fair whack of lime juice and it perked it up nicely.

Beef, Kidney Beans, chopped onion, crushed tomatoes and a decent helping of Cumin, Coriander, Cayenne pepper and Chilli flakes simmering away

That's my dinner for the rest of the month taken care of!   :D 
 
As we all know, Mexican food kicks ass, and thus this can be the official nacho thread. Show us your wizardry! 
 
I seem to always be out of sour cream and it would have been nice with these.
 
Ground beef browned with chorizo and onion, fresh jalapeno and Kirkland cheese blend.....It also has a good tbs+ of homemade hot sauce,

The jalapenos are from Fresh Thyme market. They have been one of the few that are not duds. The odd part is that the stem end is milder than the tip. TIps on these are HOT and the stem end is almost sweet....Cant beat them for 77cents a pound,
