While the beef mixture is simmering, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) if you prefer baked nachos.

Once the meat is ready, arrange a layer of tortilla chips on a large oven-safe platter or baking sheet.
5
Spoon generous portions of the sloppy joe mixture over the chips, ensuring an even distribution.
6
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the meat, allowing for maximum melty goodness.
7
If using, add sliced ripe olives on top of the cheese.

For extra crunch, bake in the preheated oven for 5-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, or you can serve it as is if you prefer.
