Who doesn’t love a good ol’ plate of Nachos. And these fresh Loaded Veggie Nachos are fantastic!

Notes About The Nachos

The fresh chopped vegetables gave them a very fresh flavour and you could almost call them healthy, right? Okay, that might be a stretch. But they were pretty good, healthy or not.

I love fresh flavours and this just didn’t disappoint.  By adding the jalapeños you get just enough spice.  The lime, cilantro and avocado really set it off to a new level.  In the past when I have had nachos, they have generally been drenched in salsa and heavy on the cheese.  These were the complete opposite of that with 100% fresh flavours.

Although I had these for lunch, they would make a great appetizer or party food.  Well, I am sure you all know that anyway as it’s kind of common sense. How long have nachos been around anyway?  So nothing new, just a fresh idea for this Thursday to get us through to the weekend.

Although this isn’t much of a recipe ( as you will see below), there are always little tips that can help you along the way.  Things like making sure your avocados are fresh and the veggies are crisp will go a long way when putting this dish together as it relies on freshness.  How many times have I said that today?  So use fresh ingredients in this dish to get the the flavours it deserves.  Anyone can open a jar of salsa and pour.  This time when reaching for the jar, try this instead.  Promise not to disappoint and deliver top flavours every time. 

Time to get the nachos on!
