Skillet Nachos

My family and I love nachos. Like, love like them. My kids especially love the creamy nacho cheese sauce that they have at the movie theater, or at a ball game. I don’t even remember when they first had them. .  because we usually always get popcorn. But ever since that day, they’ve been hooked.

Skillet Nachos

I don’t use the Velveeta cheese. My kids can have that when they go to a ball game or the movie theater. At home, we use real cheese. And I load on the veggies on my skillet nachos! Diced bell peppers and tomatoes. Diced green onions and guacamole would also be fabulous. I love it.

And we can’t forget the avocados, sour cream and salsa. oh yeah!! My cast iron skillet is totally going to get some more skillet nachos action on Sunday! Whip this up! It’s so easy and will definitely make everyone happy!

    Oh my word Alice you´re not going to believe this but I made a Spanish version of this for the monthly Cookbook collaboration I´m part of. It´s for the March edition. Yours looks amazing! That first photo is simply perfect, it makes me want to take a big spoon, dig in and take a huge bite 🙂

    Mmmm, this looks so good. And I love to take my nachos and pile them on salad greens. It might not be traditional, but it’s like the best nacho salad ever! Using real cheese is the best. And love how easy this is!

    Skillet nachos are the best! I love the ease of just popping everything into the oven. I could totally devour this entire batch during the Super Bowl. Love this, Alice!

    I don’t think I have ever met anyone that doesn’t like nachos. I don’t know how I would react if they said that haha.
    These look so good and I love that you have done them in a skillet.

    YASSS to nachos loaded with veggies and real cheese – Alice, I am surprised your kids haven’t talked you into making this skillet, wrapping it up and sneaking it into the movie theater so they can snack on it – cos this is far far more tasty than the stuff they sell there!

    How did I miss this last week!?? Maybe if I had a few skillets of this in my face the blow of the panthers losing (big time) would have been less? One skillet totally only serves one, right?! Because these look way too delicious to share! Cheers, friend!

    These could be a great appetizer, but I’d honestly eat these for dinner — they look like the perfect meal! They definitely would’ve been the highlight to SuperBowl that was seriously lacking! haha

    Oh Alice, nachos are my weakness! I seriously can’t eat just one – I have to eat the entire plate (or skillet in this case)… and I don’t share 😛
