We were looking for a fun way to mix up Sunday night dinners… so after a morning at the lake and an afternoon in the pool no one was in the mood to slave in the kitchen… so was born – a Nacho Party!
I spread chips on a baking sheet and sprinkled beans and shredded cheese on top. A baked them in a preheated oven at 375 degrees for about 5 minutes (or until cheese is melted).
Tips:
- Chips should be medium thickness – greasy or super thin/thick chips will not make for great nachos. Tostitos Simply Natural or the Organic Trader Joe’s chips are great options.
- Cheese that melts well is critical. I made three separate baking sheets of chips – 1. Monterey Jack/Pepper Jack Blend, 2. Mild Cheddar, 3. Combination of 1 & 2
Prepare toppings in separate bowls for your guests to choose their own toppings.
Suggestions:
- Meat (I bought pre-marinated Carne Asada and Pollo Asada at TJ’s)
- Guacamole/Salsa/Sour Cream
- Cilantro
- Radishes
- Avocado
- Diced Tomatoes
Fiesta time!!! Stay tuned Friday for a great cocktail recipe to make for your Nacho Party 🙂
