The Ultimate Nachos

Don't forget the Black Beans and roasted corn!! Fresh cilantro, onion and a squeeze of lime juice as well....

At my "previous employer" we had a Latin based cafe that made killer nachos!!

I have always been simple with nachos- refried beans and cheese, with jalapeno slices. Seeing some of these pictures, I may have to branch out.

I think I'll russell up some this weekend since I talked myself into it.

Well you beat me to it. Oh man that looks good. I see a little BBQ sauce in there too.

....jealous

For toppings, I like to pile on pulled pork, jalapeño nacho cheese, guacamole, sour cream, BBQ sauce, black olives, onion, candied jalapeños......seems like something is missing.

Quite possibly!

Nachos tonight. Pulled pork, refried beans, black bean & corn pico de gallo. The fried corn tortillas stood up to everything we threw at it. Cilantro on top. I forgot the Mexican la crema...dang it.

That looks good Aaron. What is Mexican la crema? Is that similar to sour cream?

No...Its more like creme fresh. A sweet milk flavor...light.

Looks good, Aaron!

I think it would look even better to me right now if I hadn't just filled the last little bit of my stomach, after dinner, with a nice big slice of raspberry cream pie...
... but my, my, it sure did taste good!

Dang you Aaron...now I'm gonna have to make some homemade tortillas, slice 'em, and then fry 'em up and fill 'em up.

You've been lifting pics. from the food network sites on the net again, haven't you Aaron?

I can't stress enough about making your own tortilla chips. They hold up under 10,000 pounds per square inch.

No, these are real Aaron pictures.

Some of my concoction for nachos was dinner tonight.

Just out of the oven...had the meat, green onion, shredded cheese, and Jalapeno on them while heating...the meat was all good and fuzzy feeling warm before they were put in the oven to melt the cheese.



All dressed up with sour cream, salsa, and a few black olives. And of course the mandatory cold beer. Good Stuff!!!

Muy Bueno Mike. It's the perfect hor'dourve.

...ah, those aren't chips from a bag are they?
