3. Greek Nachos
A lighter, and some would say healthier, take on traditional nachos. Pita is substituted for tortilla chips and hummus, tomatoes, cucumbers, and feta make up the rest of the dish. With no meat necessary, this is a great way to satisfy those vegetarian nacho lovers. Also, you won’t feel guilty indulging in a whole pile of them. You can even substitute the hummus for Greek yogurt! Get the recipe here.
4. Chicken Mole Nachos
Instead of a chicken mole enchilada, why not try their nacho counterpart? Corn chips (try blue corn!) covered in cheese, chicken, and mole sauce makes up this simple recipe. It takes less time than enchiladas and tastes just as good! Get the recipe here.
