I made a dozen tonight to go with my fajita. I keep them simple. I use the round chips, top them with retried beans, cheddar cheese, and slice of jalapeņos, zap them in the microwave and I'm done.

Do you make them at home? Recipe?

We do that one but sometimes add taco meat and sour cream.

Made some the other night with leftover brisket. Have a Mex place that I get the chips and salsa from. Add black beans, cheese, avocado, onion, jalapeno, cilantro and beer.

I was taught how to make them in the 60's by Senora Fierra. She had no English and I was just learning Espanol.

Quarter a corn tortilla and drop it into hot grease. She used lard and I now use Olive oil. When it gets semi hard, remove it and place on a a paper towel. Put a spoonful of refried beans on the chip. In those days pinto's had to be mashed after cooking. Add a little bit of sharp shredded cheddar cheese over the beans. I now top with a slice of jalapeno. Put them on a cookie pan (She used her cast iron skillet) and heat the whole works in the oven.

Remove when the cheese is melted and before the chip scorches. It works a little better if you heat the beans first. I can only eat about 2 dozen of them.

I remember some of those old deep fried corn tortillas. The were great but loaded with calories.

Bill, they still are I guess. But, I now have been civilized and use olive oil.

But, I can't enjoy nachos at restaurants of movie theaters. Even the "Mexican" eateries have civilized them with lettuce, tomato, HB meat and sour cream..

if you love nachos, try this...

put a layer of fine chopped fresh onion on the chips and then cover with equal parts shredded American, Colby, and Cheddar. carefully broil till melted cheese gets some dark spots... blend of cheeses is bliss.

You're fired. You have to have jalapeņos on there.

Tab of butter in a pan and sweat down some onions. After onion ins cooked add left over pulled pork and heat till meat is warmed through. Arrange chips, spread some refried beans on them (I like refried black beans best) add the meat/onion mix sprinkle with cheese and serve with hot sauce and jalapenos. I would like sour cream too but didn't have any.

I like them old school. Triangular chips layered on a cookie sheet, covered with meskin mix cheese and layered with japs. Cooked under a broiler until the cheese bubbles and the corners of the chips are toasty. Sprinkle of salt and a cold beer of your choice. Those are real nachos. I special order them at the meskin food places.

I also like old school tortilla soup. Chicken broth, a can of Rotel at a rolling boil. Put a handful of crushed chips in a bowl with a handful of meskin cheese mix and ladle the boiling broth over the chips/cheese mix. I hate how the yuppies try to make everything better by adding unnecessary ingredients.

I grew up going to Nacho's restaurant in Piedras Negras where the owner invented them in the 50's when he was the maitre di at another place. The old school method is the way to go. i don't eat them any other way.

I'm making them again tonight to go with my fajita. I'm using Tostitos brand rounds, store bought refried beans, shredded cheddar cheese, and my home pickled jalapeņo peppers. The peppers make more difference than you might think.
