See recipe card for quantities.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Step 1: Cook ground beef on the griddle on medium low heat. Season with ½ the taco seasoning.
- Step 2: While meat is cooking, heat up queso in a pot.
- Step 3: Once meat is almost browned, season with the remaining taco seasoning. Remove meat from griddle once it's cooked. Set griddle temp to a low heat.
- Step 4: Set tortilla chips onto the griddle in the same shape as your serving tray you'll be using. This makes for an easier transfer.
Hint: Make sure the griddle is set to low before adding your chips on. This is to keep them from burning.
- Step 5: Place meat on the chips, then shredded cheese, then queso and finally the roasted corn.
- Step 6: Once everything is heated up, remove with a large spatula and place onto serving tray. Top with cilantro lime sour cream and guacamole.
