Top Tips for Making Loaded Veggie Nachos
- Load up your nachos so you can get as many ingredients on each chip as possible. The more the merrier here!
- If you’re adding any of the extra fresh toppings like cilantro or green onions, sprinkle them on after the nachos come out of the oven.
- If you want to add any extra “wet” toppings like salsa, guacamole, etc. serve it on the side of your nachos so you don’t end up with a soggy mess!
- Use foil or parchment paper on your baking sheet for easy cleanup.
