Cheesy Tex-Mex Pork & Bacon Nachos
with Avocado
What do you call cheese that isn’t yours? It’s nacho cheese! Luckily for you, we don’t just have cheesy words, we also have cheesy nachos (and they’re all yours). The saucy topping includes our Tex-Mex spice blend for subtle heat and delicious flavour, and we've added sour cream for a refreshing balance. The combination on this tasty meal is no joke!

Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. • Finely chop garlic. Grate carrot. • Drain sweetcorn. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook corn kernels until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to bowl.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are 'popping' out.
• Meanwhile, slice mini flourtortillas into quarters. • Divide tortillas between two lined oven trays (don’t worry if they overlap). • Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Bake until lightly golden and crispy, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, return pan to high heat. Cook diced bacon, breaking bacon up with a spoon, until just golden, 3-4 minutes. (No need for oil!) • Add pork mince and carrot and cook, breaking mince up with a spoon, until browned, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic, Tex-Mex spice blend and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add the water to the beef and stir to combine. • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Season with pepper. • Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over, then cover with a lid (or foil) and cook until the cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.
TIP: don't simmer it for too long, you want it to be nice and saucy!
• While the cheese is melting, place the avocado (see ingredients) flesh in a small bowl and mash with a fork. Season to taste.
Little cooks: Help prep the avo!
• Divide the nacho chips between plates and top with the cheesy beef mixture. • Top with light sour cream, charred corn and avocado. Enjoy!
TIP: Serve the nacho chips on the side if you prefer! Little cooks: Have fun assembling the nachos!
