Nachos Recipes To Make For Dinner For Mexican Night
Craving nachos or need to feed a crowd the easy way?
Nachos for dinner is one of my favorite things to make for Taco Tuesday or Mexican Monday – or really any time that I want something easy that the whole family will enjoy.
I like that you can make them so many different ways and for events and football games I typically set up a nacho bar so everyone can make their nachos exactly how they like them.
This list is all about the different ways you can make nachos and different toppings (I also put a list of popular toppings below).
You can make your nachos in the oven on a sheet pan, in the air fryer, in the crock pot or in a skillet.
Nachos are so versatile – you really can’t mess them up. They are also the perfect food for a crowd! You can feed a lot of people with them or make them as an appetizer.
Note: You can replace the chips in any nachos recipes with fries or tater tots.
