Loaded nachos

A very nostalgic meal for me is nachos. My mom used to make them on a rectangular pizza stone when I was a kid.

They were so good! It’s a recipe I keep meaning to make, but never get around to.

Growing up, these would have included ground beef. It’s been years since I’ve eaten beef so I subbed in refried pinto beans.

Here’s what you’ll need:

Going into the oven

Organic, non gmo corn chips

Eden foods organic refried pinto beans

Organic Red & orange bell peppers

Organic onion

Dairy free cheese

Organic spinach

Organic tomato

Organic sweet potato, steamed and diced

Organic cilantro

Avocado

To make:

  1. preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  2. line a baking sheet with aluminum foil
  3. Add chips, cheese, refried pinto beans, onions and bell peppers
  4. bake for 10 minutes
  5. remove from oven and top with spinach, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, cilantro and avocado

I served deconstructed nachos to my 6 month old and nachos to my 2.5 year old who didn’t want anything to do with them. Below is how I made this meal baby led weaning friendly.

The finished product

-Spoonfuls of refried beans

-tomato spears
