3-minute Healthy Nachos:

  Nick and I decided to try out one of the simple recipe’s that I found and posted to my newest blog. And this is what we made! He made all of the food at his house and brought it over so we can put it all together. We did it a bit differently and didn’t follow the exact ingredients. Nick made everything at home and brought it over to my house. This is what was used:

• White Corn restaurant-style tortilla chips (from Fresh and easy)
• Tofu meat cooked with taco sauce
• Home made salsa (with chili powder)
• Cheddar Cheese and Pepper Jack cheese
• Black beans

  He made the salsa at his house. He used his mom’s recipe and added some things to it. The only thing I know he added (because he told me) was oregano and chili powder. I had cheddar cheese in my nachos and his had pepper jack (as shown in right photo). The recipe that inspired this didn’t have tofu (or any meat), they used kidney beans while we used black beans, and there were other things in it that we didn’t have. But if you’re ever planning on making nacho’s, add tofu. It was especially good with the taco sauce. I have found one of my new favorite meals and there there is plenty of leftovers.

Made those nacho’s I posted earlier. They were definitely delicious!

3-minute Healthy Nachos:

Buy organic or blue corn chips and layer your chips with canned slice olives, canned kidney beans, canned sliced jalapenos and grate a little organic cheddar over everything. (Buy organic when you can afford it. It’s better for the planet.) Use any veggies you like, really. Pop in the microwave for around a minute, and garnish with salsa.

This was in the queue but I thought I’d post it now since this is what I am having for dinner. I don’t think I will have all of those ingredients and the chips aren’t organic or blue corn but we’re adding tofu meat.
