Personal Nacho Platter
Initially I wanted a burrito bowl, but a burrito bowl is just nachos with out them touching right? So why not have them touch a little bit 🤔 Almost like a dip platter where the dip is in the middle and the dippable food is surrounding it. But instead of for a party its for you! For the chips i cut up some tortilla shells into squares, tossed them in a bowl with vegetable oil, salt and lime juice. Then I tossed them in the airfryer until they got crispy. The rice i always cook in my instapot on rice mode. I can NOT cook rice on the stove 😂. Add a packet of sazon Goya, the packet with the tomatoes on it, to get that reddish orange color. For the ground beef, cook it first, drain the juices, put it back in the pan, and add the beans and other seasonings. And then that's it! you assemble it all nice and pretty and you have a good looking restaurant quality meal 😋

One of the great things about making your own personal nacho platter is the flexibility in ingredients and how you can tailor it to your taste preferences. For example, using mini tortilla chips with a fresh squeeze of lime juice adds a bright, tangy flavor that pairs wonderfully with the savory components like the seasoned ground beef and beans. Cooking the rice in an Instant Pot on rice mode makes the process so much easier, especially if you struggle with stove-top rice like I do. Using sazon Goya adds a subtle tomato and pepper flavor that not only offers a beautiful reddish-orange color but also enhances the overall taste without needing many additional spices. For the ground beef, draining the excess juice before adding the beans helps keep the mixture from getting too wet and ensures every bite is perfectly seasoned. Combining the beef with beans also boosts protein and fiber, making the meal more filling and nutritious. Assembling the platter with the chips surrounding the dip elements creates a fun and visually appealing presentation. It’s like having a dip platter for one, which makes it perfect for solo dinners or meal prepping for busy days. Don’t hesitate to get creative by adding toppings like fresh cilantro, a dollop of sour cream or guacamole, or a sprinkle of shredded cheese. This dish lends itself to customization, so you can make it your own signature nacho bowl experience. Overall, the personal nacho platter is a comforting and delicious meal option that’s easy to prepare and brings together the best flavors of Mexican-inspired cuisine in a convenient, bite-sized format.
