Chili and Cheese Nachos

Today’s Menu: Chili and Cheese Nachos






Just had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea for Breakfast this morning. Really been dreading today.
Today is my Aunt's Funeral, really a rough day for the family. I was very close to her and I'm really going to miss her. She had dementia, so at least shes not suffering no more from that terrible disease. It was very tough watching her healthy slowly decline due to the dementia. Love you Aunt Dorthy! I wanted a light Dinner and something easy to fix. So tonight I prepared Chili and Cheese Nachos.





One of those days where something lighter sounded right for dinner so it was Chili and Cheese
Nachos! Make a bed of Tostito’s Multi Grain Scoops. Top with Hormel Turkey Chili with Beans, Black Olives, Green Olives, Sliced Jalapenos, all covered up with a blanket of Sargento Shredded Mozzarella. That’s my Dinner Tonight!

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 better than most chips. For my toppings I used 1 can of Mario Sliced Black 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 sliced up some Green Olives, Mezzetta Deli Sliced Jalapeno Peppers, Hormel Turkey Chili with Beans, a few shakes (or more) of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, and Sargento Reduced Fat Mozzarella. Put all that together and it’s nothing but good!


To prepare I preheat the oven at 400 degrees and sprayed a glass baking dish with Pam and layer
everything in. I first opened up 2 cans of the Hormel Chili with Beans and heated them up in a sauce pan, as it was heating I added about 6 shakes of Frank’s Hot Sauce to it and mixed. After the Chili was ready I added 4 tablespoons of Chili to the baking dish, then I added my Scoops (Chips). I then added the Sliced Black Olives and Sliced Green Olives, the remainder of the Chili, Sliced Jalapeno Peppers (Love These), and then top everything the Cheese. Then just pop it in the oven 10 minutes or so until the Cheese had started to melt and everything heated. I love Nachos, nothing better than a big plate of Chili Cheese Nachos! Also had an ice-cold Diet Dr. Pepper to drink. For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Mousse.
