Nachos.....yum

My last post said I was trying to eat better.




But that doesn't mean
eating only fruits and veggies.
One thing we like a lot is nachos!
And we have a delicious low fat
version I'd like to share with you.
First we start out with
Tostitos Light Tortilla Chips.
These are the ones made with ,Olean.



For the cheese, we use

Sargento Reduced Fat Mexican Cheese.

You can't use the fat free cheese,
it won't melt.




To season the beef,
we use Old El Paso
Taco Seasoning Mix.


We buy the less sodium.
Watching the blood pressure too!


For toppings,
we use chopped tomatoes,
and chopped green onions.
You can use any toppings you like.





Brown the ground beef.
We buy the Extra Lean 4% fat
ground beef.
Stir in the seasoning pack with water,
and simmer according to directions.


Spread a layer of chips on a pan.
We use a pizza pan.
Sprinkle the beef mixture
over the chips.



Add the toppings.

Looking good huh?

Sprinkle the cheese over that.



Put in over on broil

to melt the cheese

About 5 minutes,
Or untill cheese is melted,and chips are golden on edges.

Are you hungry yet?

ENJOY!

If you like, do what Craig does,
and top that with shredded lettuce,
Salsa, and fat free sour cream!

Now you can enjoy nachos with
half the calories,
and half the fat!

    Oh my gosh that looks good!

    What a great idea, and yet fairly healthy and yet very tasty.

    I think I'll try that one at home with Steve
