Hi friends :)
Who likes easy dinners that the whole family will love? I thought so.
Sure, there are tortilla chips under there but there is also beans (protein), vegan queso (healthy fat & veggies), guac (healthy fat), olives (healthy fat), vegetables & you know… salsa to top it because salsa is the best. Trust me when I say that your family will be very excited about nacho night.
It’s not rocket science to make nachos of course but I thought I’d share what our loaded nachos end up looking like for inspiration. You can add or omit whatever you want to cater to your family but that is the beauty of it – anything goes! If you don’t have corn, sub in some diced peppers. Or no black beans? Red or pinto work just as beautifully.
You can also make this a fun activity for your kids – have them help you to sprinkle on all the toppings. It’s a win for everyone.
Recipe
You will need:
- Bag of tortilla chips
