CRISPY OVEN ROASTED NACHOS WITH FRESH TOMATO AND HOT PEPPER SALSA
You know I love healthy recipes but these nachos are a special treat. My mom started making these nachos about ten years ago and they’ve been a huge hit with our family ever since. They’re the perfect accompaniment to my mom’s famous chili recipe. So if you’re looking for a recipe that’s suitable for a cozy evening in, look no further.
My recommendation is that you always make a little more than you think you’ll need because people always tend to go for seconds, they also save well in the fridge.
