Layered Nachos

[Mr. Bones]

Needed some post-funeral sustenance, didn't really feel like cookin, but knew I should best eat summat, afore goin to beddy-bye.

Layer 0 - Paper Plate

Due to cookin time required, gittin a later layer goin, in th meantime...

Cool Beans, quite literally...


Stirred in a T, mebbe ~2 of water, to accomplish more effective nukeration...


Chucked th Improvised Texas Beans into my trusty, crusty ol RADIATION-KING, bout a minute, stir, repeat, as needed, while I was layerin up th rest of my nacho plate...

Sorry to hear about the funeral. Usually the best part in our circle is the post funeral lunch served in the church basement by the church ladies. The usually make what has become known as funeral hot dish which is a riff on tater tot hot dish which is outstanding because these ladies make everything from scratch!

When my brother passed earlier this year it was landeagers and sauerkraut and German potato salad.

Nice recovery and good call on the nacho's Mr. Bones!

[Backroadmeats]

Funeral German potato salad and the hamburger wild rice hotdish are always amazing.. then ya always have plates of desert

[Mr. Bones]

Yeah, Sure!
Don't be after fergettin about th Jello Salad, neither!
Thanks fer yer kind words, an condolences, Brother!

[Mr. Bones]

Layer 1 - A fairly OCD arrangement of bite-size Tostito's...See how it's already, like, ~500%~ more nacho-ey than Layer 0, pictured above? Mmmmm!!!!

Layer 2 - Approx ~1/2+ 15 oz. jar of Tostitos Salsa Con Queso, medium.
BOGO, plus ain't gotta wait on/stir/futz wit no Velveeta/Rotel, or clean a saucepan / crockpot, after.


Layer 3 - Chopped white onion.
Note: Shoulda nuke-steamed, or sautee'd, they didn't cook down how I envisioned, despite th timeframe. Always learnin...

Reckon dicin em up much finer might have expedited th desired results, as well.
More than one way to skin a cat.

[Mr. Bones]

Potkettleblack Yup caramelized would have been WAY (exponentially) better, an keepin some on hand in th Ready Room of my icebox is a genius idea! Thanks!

Do ya jus take up/set aside some of yer own, or are ya buyin jars?

Sweatin em down in yer DO?

Thanks fer th inspiration, Brother; I use onion in/on practically everything, an cookin/parcookin/ratholin some extra is a no problem, no brainer!

[Potkettleblack]

Do em myself by the easiest lazy method:

Another idea would be quick pickled...

[Mr. Bones]

Layer 4 - Cumin
Sprinkled a lil ground cumin all over th proceedins...

That looks great. I've been thinkin' about doing something similar with some large flour tortillas. I'm thinkin' I should also add either some pulled pork or pulled beef.

I am sorry for your loss. I was also at a funeral today...

Any thread that says "Nachos" open at your own risk. I told myself "Don't do it man!" but...I ...just...couldn't...resist. Good looking grub amigo! Before the holiday's I was on the keto diet, went off of it so I could eat Christmas cookies and stuff then planned on going back on it. But all of your bean posts posts are making me want to just say heck with it.

[Mr. Bones]

So sorry fer screwin up yer diet so bad, Brother!
Don't rightly reckon I'd be able to do a diet that excluded beans...

[Larry Grover]

Mr. Bones It's all good. I'm gonna stay on a traditional diet but keep sugar consumption down. If all goes well I'll write a book..."The low sugar, high bean diet" LOL.

[Santamarina]

Nachos are near and dear to my heart. I may have to do a similar write up about the way I do’em.

Hmmm...nachos sound pretty good right about now!

[Mr. Bones]

I'd certainly love to see yer nachos, Amigo!
