if you have adb setup, adb push a ROM zip to your /sdcard/ and adb reboot recovery to boot into recovery

adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip
adb reboot recovery

OR

you can download the factory images from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and flash them with fastboot.

If you need any help with those steps feel free to ask
