Nachos are my most preferred pastime snacks. It could be for parties or just for a quite bite after a casual siesta, munching on Nachos is fun, relaxing and joyful. As much as I love Nachos, my fondness for their accompaniment- rightfully known as Salsa is no less.
That’s the reason why, I have never stopped myself from making Avocado and Peach Salsa, Mango Salsa because these dips go wonderfully well with Nachos which are nothing but a dish assembled using tortilla chips and melted, cheesy sauce.
Nachos along with being my preferred snack is also loved by my kid. And in the name of something yummy, I thought why not make the sunny boy eat some beans and veggies which he otherwise hates eating, in the lieu of Loaded Nachos.
What is Loaded Nachos?
Loaded Nachos is a motley created using two types of beans, veggies, a variety of cheese, dips and more – it fills you up and tastes nothing less than scrumptious. The good news is that it is pretty basic to make and all you need is the most easily ingredients and microwave by your stride.
Imagine nicely baked tortilla chips which is topped with refried beans, black beans, corn kernels, guacamole, Jalapeno, sour cream and even tomato salsa, not to forget the generous smothering of cheddar and gouda cheese – well, that’s Loaded Nachos for you!
