It’s football season, and you know what that means- delicious snacks! But it doesn’t have to stop there- most snacks can actually be turned into a real dinner with just a few adjustments. Whether your go-to is chicken wings, the veggie tray or the nachos, now is the time to experiment with some fun new recipes- especially ones that are quick & easy and allow you to get back to the game {or rather, back to Pinterest if you’re like me}.
I like nachos, but there isn’t usually much nutritional benefit to them. They’re usually just chips smothered in processed cheese. I decided to make my own version that included lots of veggies and real cheese, and I used Ore-Ida Golden Crinkles fries for the main ingredient instead of the chips. All three of us loved these {Shane had his without all of the toppings though} and they were so easy I barely had to do anything!
Ingredients
- Ore-Ida Golden Crinkles Fries
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- Optional Toppings:
- Sour Cream
- Guacamole
- Diced Onion
- Diced Tomatoes
- Cilantro
- Sliced Jalapenos
Directions
- Make Ore-Ida Golden Crinkle Fries according to directions on bag
- When fries are very slightly golden brown, pull out of the oven & sprinkle with desired amount of cheddar cheese
- Put back in oven for about 3-4 minutes to allow cheese to melt, but watch to make sure it doesn’t burn
- Top with optional toppings as desired
It’s such an easy recipe, and very easy to customize which is great for both parties & picky kids! So whether you need a snack to serve at the game or you’re looking for a yummy dinner that the whole family will enjoy, make sure you try these easy nachos!
