Preparing Nachos

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Layer the Chips and Cheese

    On a large baking sheet, spread the tortilla chips evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese generously over the chips.

  3. 3

    Bake

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Making Pico de Gallo

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeño, lime juice, and salt.

  2. 5

    Mix Well

    Stir the mixture well to combine all the flavors. Set aside to let the flavors meld.

Making Guacamole

  1. 6

    Mash Avocados

    In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with a fork until smooth but still slightly chunky.

  2. 7

    Add Other Ingredients

    Mix in lime juice, minced garlic, salt, chopped cilantro, and diced tomato (if using). Stir until well combined.

Serving

    Serve Immediately

    Serve the nachos hot with additional lime wedges on the side, if desired. Enjoy!
