Nachos are a quick and easy way to feed a crowd, and can be easily customizable to fit any dietary needs. With a few tips and some key layering techniques, you’ll never need a recipe to whip up this cheesy snack.
Nachos, though often derided for being a movie theater or stadium food, are a gift that can be shared by many. They can be made in the microwave (not recommended) and be simple, or they can get as difficult as poached pear and gorgonzola dessert nachos. Made right, nachos will please any group.
