Prep 15 min · Cook 10 min

Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, combine the diced tomato, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of the salt. Stir well and set aside to let the flavors meld while you cook the beef.
Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer until the liquid has evaporated and the beef is well-coated. Stir in the black beans to warm through. Done when browned and no longer pink, 160°F.
Spread the tortilla chips in a single layer on a small baking sheet. Spoon the warm beef and bean mixture evenly over the chips. Sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella. Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Done when cheese is melted and bubbly.
Transfer the hot nachos to a plate. Top with the prepared fresh salsa and serve immediately.
