Winter is my favorite season to spend indoors all cuddled up and cozy on the couch. It is a nice time to be still and just relax from the hectic workweek. The cold winter weather makes for the perfect opportunity to spend all weekend plopped in front of the TV binge-watching my favorite shows (Game of Thrones or The Voice) or better yet, if it is Sunday then it’s football! Lots and lots of football.
And when I think football, I think good food. Football and food go hand in hand, y’know?
This weekend, while I watched my Seahawks (#GoHawks!) win, I made the simplest, most delicious comfort meal – chili cheese nachos.
The chili cheese nachos literally took 10 minutes to prepare and cook. These easy oven nachos consisted of 4 main ingredients – tortilla chips, Wolf Brand Chili, cheese and RO*TEL. From the basics, you can add whatever nacho toppings you prefer – green onions, sour cream, and olives are my favorites.
Football Food: Chili Cheese Nachos
Ingredients:
- Tortilla Chips
- 1 cup Mexican Cheese Blend or Cheddar
- 1 can Wolf Brand Chili
- 1 can RO*TEL
Optional toppings: lettuce, guacamole, green onions, sour cream, jalapeños, and olives
- Warm the Wolf Brand Chili.
- Preheat oven to 425°
- Spread a single layer of tortilla chips in baking dish. Layer it with dollops of Wolf Brand Chili, RO*TEL and shredded cheese. Repeat to create a second layer using the remaining Wolf Brand Chili, RO*TEL and cheese.
- Bake in oven for 8-10 minutes. Broil for <1 minute (watch closely so doesn’t burn!)
- Serve with desired toppings. Enjoy!
Layers of crunchy corn tortillas topped with Wolf Brand Chili, cheese and toppings, baked to perfection in the oven until the cheese is melted throughout. Yum! For that extra crisp, don’t skip the broil step – but be on the lookout, you don’t want to burn the chips or overcook the cheese – or maybe you do?
The nachos turned out just right – crispy on top and gooey on the bottom. This multi-layer nacho recipe means you get a little of both! The Wolf Brand Chili is thick and beefy, the cheese is stringy and the toppings are fresh. What a perfect easy oven nacho dish!
There you have it – perfect game day nachos. Simple and delicious, worthy of my touchdown dance.
