Amazing Nachos with Veggies and Homemade Nacho Ale Cheese Sauce
These are some amazing Nachos made with veggies and Homemade Nacho Ale Cheese Sauce. Easy and amazing snack to serve at your next football party!
Super Bowl is this week and I know you are going to have at least one nacho recipe for it.
Wings are nice and great but you can’t just serve wings! You need some chips smothered in some kind of delicious cheese sauce. These nachos will do just the trick to show you cheese heaven! I am actually not proud of how much of them I ate. This is one tasty dish of nachos loaded with fresh veggies and smothered in lots of cheese sauce. It has a kick to it too, coming from jalapenos and sauce. This fabulous sauce is made with Pepper Jack cheese and ale so it has some spice to it. If you want to kick it up a notch, add some red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper while sauce is cooking. You can always add more fresh jalapenos to veggies as well. Heat level is all up to you.
You probably noticed that I left out the serving amount. I’ve been doing good with remembering to add serving amount to my recipes but I have the hardest time estimating how many people some dishes will feed. It’s always easier to measure something in cups or when you have an exact amount of cookies or rolls. But here, it’s a little tricky because I can’t exactly measure it in cups.
I get this question all the time, “will it be enough for my family dinner?” Well, if you have teenage boys, probably not. I don’t know if it will feed two adults or four. It all depends on how many other dishes you serve at the same time and, more importantly, how much one can eat! At best I can tell you is that there is a whole 9 oz bag of chips, good amount of veggies and about 2 cups of cheese sauce. Enjoy!
