Chorizo Veggie nachos

I made these chorizo nachos for football Sunday and they were AWESOME. It was really simple and fast to put together.

While I only had mozzarella cheese using a mixture of cheeses including cheddar, mozzarella, Monterrey etc could be even better.

Also, you may use ground beef or even refried beans instead of the the soy chorizo and include or substitute any other ingredients of your choice. Nachos are a very versatile dish.

I also used some whole grain tortillas chips that I got at Trader Joe’s to make them healthier but you can use any tortillas chips you like. These nachos are perfect for football season….I really don’t know anyone who doesn’t like gooey cheesy nachos!!

Enjoy!!

This is the soy chorizo I got at Trader Joe’s but you can use ground beef, refried beans or whatever you prefer. I just discovered this item not long ago and we love it!! We also use whole grain tortillas chips….much better!

Super easy to do vegetarian nachos and not so bad for you :-)
