When I was reached out by AL Chipino I couldn’t help but be overjoyed. Receiving carton-loads of nachos is undoubtedly a dream come true for good people like me! The brand has a number of interesting and unique flavours and the tortilla chips are non-GMO and are gluten free!
Of course, the natural inclination is to bust open a pack and get your salsa and pig out in front of Netflix – pretty plain obvious.
But we can do much more than that at Kitchen Therapy – over the next few weeks I am going to share with you a range of unique recipes using nachos in your cooking.
This is a simple twist on the family favourite comfort food – Mac & Cheese! With a bit of nacho crunch on top, this definitely fancies up a regular fare!
