Step 1

Prepare the taco meat or protein according to your favorite method.

Step 2

Chop up all of the toppings.

Step 3

Assemble the nachos by placing a layer of tortilla chips or sliced (sweet) potato in the bottom of your foil pan or cast-iron skillet.

Step 4

Add a layer of your desired toppings, including cheese.

Step 5

Repeat the layering of chips and toppings until the pan is filled.

Step 6

Add a thick layer of cheese on the top.

Step 7

Cover the pan with a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil and crimp it around the edges.

Step 8

Place on a grate over a campfire or on a grill. Do not place it directly over an open flame or the bottom might burn.

Step 9

Cook each foil pan of nachos until the cheese is melted and toppings are cooked and tender. This will take anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes give or take depending on the temperature of the fire/grill.

Step 10

Peel back the corner of the foil to check to see if the nachos are grilled to your liking.

Step 11

Pull the pan off the campfire and eat.
