Hosting friends for a game day and unsure what to make? I know those noon games don’t leave much time to prepare many snacks before your guests arrive, but these sheet pan nachos will be a recipe you will want to try.
If you saw my recent post with the Carnitas Tacos, then I think you’ll like this one too because it’s the same precooked meat from Costco (2 pack). The clean-up is nacho problem because it is just as easy, which is key when hosting!
What you’ll need:
Before you bake:
- tortilla chips
- cheese, lots and lots of cheese
- carnitas, cooked
Layer chips, cheese, and meat onto a foil lined baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes until the cheese is melted.
After you bake suggested toppings:
Simply add your favorite toppings and just like that you will have a sheet pan nachos to please a crowd. Easy peasy!
- jalapeños
- avocado
- green onion
- cilantro
- greek yogurt or sour cream
- pico de gallo or your favorite salsa
- lime wedges
