]]>Check out these tips that will help you make the best nachos.
Any tortilla chips and cheese won’t cut it. Instead, get the tortilla chips that are lightly salted and don’t feature extra flavoring. For cheese, opt for one that melts quickly and becomes gooey, like cheddar or Monterey Jack.
When picking out toppings, make sure not to overdo it. Pick out toppings that work together well and that you enjoy on their own. Throw in some protein and baked beans, add some heat with salsa, throw in some onions or scallions for freshness, and finish it off with creamy ingredients like Mexican crema or sour cream.
Don’t fully assemble the nachos when popping them in an oven. Instead, just add tortilla chips, cheese, protein, and beans before baking. After baking, add the rest of the toppings.
To get the best nachos, you need to get the layering right. The best option is to start a layer of tortilla chips and then add toppings in order of cheese, protein, baked beans, salsa, crema or sour cream, and fresh veggies.

What’s rich, savory, and takes on the flavor of anything that you cook them in? That’s right, the answer is mushrooms! Try sauteeing them in a spicy Mexican sauce and then throwing them on top of nachos for a tasty treat.
Are you a seafood fan who also loves nachos? You should definitely try topping them with a shrimp and avocado mix. Inspiring the flavor of ceviche, it’s a unique twist on a dish that you’ve probably never tried in this way.
Looking for an underappreciated meat to try on your next batch of nachos? How about chorizo, a spicy Mexican sausage that is great when crumbled on top of cheese on top of tortilla chips.

]]>Sweet potatoes make for the perfect base for nachos! All you have to do is cut the sweet potatoes into about 1/8 inch rounds, and put them on a baking sheet.
Cook the sweet potatoes for 20 minutes at 425 F and flip them half way through.
At the end, turn on the broiler for 1-2 minutes so they get really crispy.
Cover them in your favorite fixin’s and you’ll be in nacho heaven!
Zucchini is such a healthy vegetable, and they make for the perfect base to nachos because they can get really crispy and boost Latin-inspired flavors!
All you have to do is slice the zucchini into about 1/4 inch rounds. Lay them on paper towels and season each side with kosher salt.
Leave the zucchini for 10-15 minutes so the water can extract out of them and then press as much water as you can out of them with a paper towel on top.
Bake at 400F until they’re crispy, and you have your base!

]]>Here’s how to make your own version at home.
Start by slicing the chicken breast into bite-sized chunks or strips and cook them in a skillet over medium heat.
After this, pour the beans into a saucepan on the stove and warm them up with medium-low heat.
While the chicken is cooking, slice the tomato into bite-sized pieces. Then, cut the avocado into slices. Set aside.
Place the bag of tortilla chips on a large plate. Place the warm beans directly on top of the chips, and then put the chicken on top of the beans. Top them with the shredded cheese and allow the cheese to melt.
Next, sprinkle the tomato and avocado chunks on top of the other layers. The final touch is a dollop of sour cream on top of the whole creation. You can also put hot sauce on top of the nachos if you want them to have a kick!
Enjoy, and buen provecho!

]]>But if you want to coax some magical flavors out of a snack aisle, turn that bag of chips into a festive plate of chicken nachos. It’s easy and delicious. Here’s how:
White corn restaurant-style chips are light and crispy, not like the overly-crunchy and more rustic dense yellow-corn tortilla chips. The lighter-style chip works best as a nacho base because the chips will get toasted in the oven. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees, line a baking sheet with foil, and lay down a base of chips.
Sprinkle a cup of shredded mild cheddar or taco-style cheese over the chips. Pre-cooked chicken makes a delicious and convenient nacho protein choice. Anything from a shredded rotisserie chicken meat or packaged grilled chicken strips will work. Other great add-ons include sliced green onions, drained black beans and pickled jalapenos.
Toss that sheet pan into the oven for 9-10 minutes, until the cheese is nicely melted and the chip edges brown slightly. Now is the time to add a zip of freshness and truly elevate the snack to a meal. Fresh tomatoes, avocado slices, salsa, chopped cilantro, and drizzled sour cream all counterbalance the richness of the melted cheese and savory chicken.
Transfer to a platter and dig into your masterpiece.
