Recipe: Easy, Delicious Nachos

The husband was out of town for a few days and to welcome him back, the kids wanted to help make a special dinner.  With three little ones in the kitchen, I wanted to make something easy.  No mess.  Not much clean-up (well, as little clean-up as possible).  We excitedly agreed on nachos.  Nachos = happy kids!  And I also found out, nachos = happy husband.


These delicious nachos were so easy to make.... just a bunch of layers piled high.  And, to make it even easier, I bought all the toppings already prepared, no chopping involved! (pre-cut vegetables are packaged in a container in the produce aisle at my local grocery store, I love it!)

Delicious Nachos Recipe

Ingredients
  • lightly salted tortilla chips, about a 14oz bag
  • pico de gallo (there is usually a variety... original, black bean, corn, mango, pineapple or a combination - I like to combine the original in mild, original in medium, and one made with a mixture of black beans and corn).  For a full baking sheet piled high, I buy about 48oz.
  • 1c green onions
  • 2 tbsp cilantro
  • 24oz cheddar cheese
  
Directions (looks long, but it's not):
  • preheat oven to 400 degrees
  • line baking sheet with aluminum foil
  • spread tortilla chips in a thin layer covering entire baking sheet
  • sprinkle thin layer of shredded cheddar cheese over chips
  • spoon about 12oz of pico de gallo mixture over cheese
  • sprinkle green onions over pico de gallo
  • sprinkle an extra-thin layer of shredded cheddar cheese over onions
  • add more chips
  • add thin layer of cheese
  • add more pico de gallo
  • a little bit of onions
  • little bit of cheese
  • more chips
  • more cheese
  • pico de gallo
  • some onions
  • cheese
  • chips again
  • lots of cheese
  • top with pico all over the top
  • sprinkle with cilantro
  •  place baking sheet on middle rack in oven for about 15 min, until top cheese is golden brown and cheese in middle has warmed and melted
  • remove from oven


Serve immediately to hungry little ones and a happy husband!  We add guacamole on the side (I bought our guac already made too, so convenient and HEB has an awesome one that's pretty close to homemade).  No forks involved, dig in! 
 

You could also add sour cream, salsa, a squeeze of lime, chicken, beef, olives, sliced avocados or even more cheese!  Who doesn't love more cheese!  Yum!

  9. There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.

  10. في حالات أكثر تقدمًا أو شديدة من مرض الدوالي ، قد يتطلب العلاج الجراحي إجراء جراحي لإزالة الدوالي. يتم استئصال الجزء دعامة تمدد الشريان الاورطي من الأوردة، وعادة يتم القيام بعملية تحت التخدير الموضعي.

    من المهم أن يتم استشارة طبيب الأمراض الجلدية أو طبيب الأمراض الوعائية لتقييم حالة الدوالي وتوصية العلاج الأنسب بناءً على حالتك الفردية.
