How to Make Nachos?
Make sure you bring out the BIG platter to build these nachos and keep extra servings of the beans and the cheese and the toppings. They are so tempting and addictive , you won't be able stop at one platter serving.
We start building the Nacho platter with crispy crunchy tortilla chips. Try to use the freshest batch possible. Grab a big bag of it on your next grocery trip. You will need it.
Then we layer amazingly delicious Refried bean dip. This is the true game changer guys. This dip makes these nachos ultra flavorful and hearty.
Check out my all time favorite recipe to make (non) refried pinto beans at home. These beans are very easy to make especially in InstantPot. I often make a big batch of these beans and store it for multiple uses. * see the note below.
Now the layer of cheese. I prefer to use Mexican blend of Monetary Jack Cheese and Colby Jack Cheese. Freshly grated cheese is always better but I am all for quick convenience too . So don't fret if you want to use pre-shredded.
You arrange these first three layers on the platter. Then you simply microwave the platter for 2-3 minutes. The cheese melts and creates yummy goodness on those chips. You then pile on rest of the layers and Dig in those loaded yummy nachos! BEST THING EVER !
Then we add layer of fresh mixed veggies called Pico de Gallo. Pico de Gallo typically includes diced onions and tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, cilantro and lime juice and seasoned with salt and pepper. It's a layer of refreshing taste, bit of crunch and all plant bases goodness. Very easy and quick to make.
Guacamole is next layer on these loaded nachos. However, avocado browns super fast and the appearance of browned avocado is not so pleasing. So I keep it on the side. You can just scoop it out with every loaded chip.
Cut the avocado in half, scoop out the flesh from outer layer. Mix in chopped cilantro, lime juice , one clove of minced garlic and small de-seeded jalapeno pepper. Gently mash everything well with fork and voila!! Your awesome guac is ready.
You top these unbelievably tasty nachos with chopped butter lettuce, olives, jalapeño peppers and cilantro. A generous squeeze of lime juice can be drizzled on the top !! There you have it folks. The BEST, the Super Delicious Nachos are ready to rock and roll the show.
Pro Tips
- To make it truly semi- homemade , you can always buy refried beans in the can. Just follow the directions on the can to re-heat before using them.
- Many places, to save time, people use salsa to flavor the nachos. In my opinion, salsa makes nachos soggy, which isn't nice. I prefer to use Pico de Galo .
- You add it on after you have microwaved the bean and cheese and chips. So it stays fresh and adds a good texture.
- To kick these nachos to another notch, we love to keep Mango Habanero Sauce on the side. Just a couple drops and it adds a bold , spicy flavors. Totally optional.
- The typical recipes involve baking the chips with cheese. In this recipe, we use microwave instead. The goal is to melt the cheese just enough so it flows well together.
- It also warms up the chips just enough so they taste fresh and crispy. And it' super duper quick. No waiting for oven to heat and no burnt nachos- guaranteed.
- You want to coat each tortilla chip with some if not all the toppings. So make sure to arrange the chips in single layer.
There you have it folks. Ultimate game-day nachos. Grab a drink, gather around the table and dig in ( no cutlery necessary)
