How to Make Nachos Healthy
Now of course, you could include any veggies you want in this recipe but I’ve stuck to my favourites: tomatoes, bell peppers, corn, jalapeños, red onions, some black beans for added protein, and fresh herbs like parsley and cilantro. Top it all off with some low fat cheese and low fat sour cream and you’re good to go! And if you still want that stretchy-cheese effect without all the fat, use my trick: Mozzarella!! Low fat mozzarella mixed with other low fat cheeses still creates that stretchy cheese we all know and love on our nachos! Give it a try!
