Nachos are one of my most favorite Mexican foods. I’d love to serve them every time in a picnic or a get-together for my family and friends. These veggie nachos are my most favorite way to get my veggies in while still enjoying a delicious snack.
My recipe is a healthy veggie version of nachos fully loaded with many vegetables, beans and cheese. Adding more vegetables like bell peppers, olives and salsa’s like red salsa or salsa verde gives these nachos the real Mexican nachos flavor.
