Chili and Cheese Nachos!

Dinner Tonight: Chili and Cheese Nachos







Partly sunny and around 70 degrees today, not a bad day outside. We went and seen my Aunt today, she's in an assisted living center here locally. Then went to a Birthday Party for my cousin's twins, 3 years old today! They've come such a long way. They were preemie twins, about 2 months early. They weren't sure they would make it, but they have and doing great. The boy is larger than his sister who is very petite. The boy is sort of mellow but the girl is a wild one! Just think the world of them! Got back sort of late so I wanted something easy but still delicious. So I went with a can't miss dish, Chili and Cheese Nachos!








I used Tostitos Multi Grain Scoops for my Chips. I love these with Salsa or just as snack by their selves, they bake and hold their shape real good. For my toppings I used 1 can of Mario Sliced Black Olives. Before I go any further a bit about these Olives, anyone that uses small cans of Sliced Black Olives know what a pain they can be opening sometimes. Not these, they come in a can with a pull tab! About time. For my other toppings I used Mezzetta Deli Sliced Tamed Jalapeno Peppers, Hormel Turkey Chili with Beans, a few shakes of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, and Sargento Reduced Fat Mozzarella.





Add Cheese and Bake!


To prepare I preheat the oven at 400 degrees and sprayed a glass baking dish with Pam and layer everything in. I start with a couple of tablespoons of Chili then I add my Scoops (Chips). I then add the Sliced Black Olives, the Chili, Sliced Jalapeno Peppers (Love These), and then top everything the Cheese Blend. Then just pop it in the oven 10 minutes or so until the Cheese had started to melt and everything heated. For the Chili I warm it up in a sauce pan, adding a few shakes of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, before I top the Scoops with it. Nothing better than a big plate of Chili Cheese Nachos! Also had an ice-cold Diet Dr. Pepper to drink. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Yogurt.
