These countertop nachos are perfect for Taco Tuesday dinner with the family or entertaining. Cover a table with nachos and grab all the fun fixings!
This year Cinco de Mayo is on Taco Tuesday, so you know we need to go big! Now we take Taco Tuesday pretty seriously in our house. We love to do some crock pot walking tacos, Taco Pizza, quesadillas and make your own nacho night as our chosen ways to celebrate.
And when it comes to nachos, the way to do it is Countertop Nachos. This way, everyone can customize their own to their taste and it makes it a fun experience. I’m sharing how to make the ultimate countertop nachos below.
What are Countertop Nachos?
Think of countertop nachos as a giant nacho buffet. You’ll cover your table with layers of sturdy, crisp nachos, cover with cheese, meat and all of your favorite toppings.
The reason this is such a hit is that it is 100% customizable. Everyone can make their own with all their favorites. And it’s a fun activity for family Taco night or when you’re entertaining friends. And who doesn’t love a big table covered with nachos?
How to make the ultimate countertop nachos
1.) Start by covering your countertop or table with aluminum foil.
2.) Pour out your layer of tortilla chips. You will want a sturdy, thick chip that can stand the pressure of all the toppings.
3.) Add the cheese. It’s all about the cheese in my opinion. We do a layer of shredded mexican cheese and then melted queso blanco.
4.) Pack with protein. We love to do ground turkey or ground beef. But beans work too!
5.) Sprinkle on some veggies like roasted corn, shredded lettuce, and crunchy peppers.
6.) Serve with bowls of salsa, guacamole and sour cream so that everyone can add their own sauces.
Enjoy!!!
