The countdown has started - only nine more days until Super Bowl 47! That means you only have about seven days to get your snack menu in order...no pressure.
The internet is fierce with recipes and snack ideas, especially Pinterest. You can build your own and watch it get demolished by the end of the first quarterif your man likes to keep up with his feminine side.
Whatever you choose, make sure there's plenty of it - something about sports really pumps up the appetite. Except tennis...I don't think I've seen anyone at a tennis tournament wrestling with a giant hot dog and a 20oz beer.
The great thing about nachos is you can style them to whatever tastes you like. Make sure to go through the fridge and use up any odds and ends that might be good for toppings.
Ground beef is a popular meat to add but I opted to chop up some pre-seasoned carne asada.
I kept mine on the simpler side, adding chopped tomato, sliced red onion, green onion, sliced jalapeno, cilantro and sour cream. I discovered a can of black beans afterwards and verbally expressed my regret at not being able to add them.
Wait...what about the cheese sauce, I hear you yell? A simple flour-based cheddar cheese mix with some spices and chilis to increase the heat will do the trick. Serve some extra sauce on the side for the folks who might not like your spicy tower of nacho. To them....whatevs.
