2. Add taco seasoning and water, and simmer until the mixture has thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove 
   beef from oven and set aside.
3. Clean the Dutch oven and spread a layer of tortilla chips over the bottom. Top with half of the ground beef 
   mixture and 1cup of cheddar cheese shreds.
4. Top evenly with another layer of tortilla chips, remaining ground beef, and remaining cheese.
5. Bake until cheese is melted and bubbling at the edges, about 10-12 minutes.
6. Let nachos cool slightly before topping with salsa and dollops of sour cream. Garnish with 
   cilantro and serve.
