Nachos

When we get hungry for something spicy, crunchy, tasty and quick, we often turn to our individual Nachos.  There are usually two of us but if there are more, it is very easy to adjust this recipe. Most of these ingredients are always in my fridge or pantry.

 Nachos

Tortilla Chips (as many as you want)

1 cup shredded cheese (any kind you want)

1/2 tomato, diced

1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

2 tablespoons nacho rings, chopped (or as many as you like)

1 avocado, chopped

2 wedges of fresh lime, optional (but so good)

2 green onions, chopped - greens and all

1/2 cup prepared salsa

1/2 cup sour cream

Prepare all of your ingredients on a platter or cutting board.  

With a square piece of foil, place your hand in the center and pull up the corners.  This will form a ‘bowl’ for your chips.  Fill each foil ‘bowl’ with as many tortilla chips as you like.  Sprinkle cheese on top of the chips.  Turn on your broiler and place the rack 8 - 10 inches below the element.  Place your chips and cheese under the broiler for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese starts to melt.  Watch those chips because they will start to turn brown fast.  Remove the foil ‘bowls’ and top with desired toppings.  Squeeze the fresh lime over the top of everything.  

You can always add any of your own favorite toppings!  





Just heat chips and cheese,

and add the toppings of your 

choice.
