Nachos with Salad Recipe

Serve a hot platter of nachos with a lovely big bowl of fresh salad and watch the family come a-runnin’! This meal is always a big hit with my family, and they love serving themselves with all the condiments that go with nachos – guacamole, sour cream and salsa.

You can make your own guacamole and tomato salsa if you like. But I find it time-saving and easier to just swing by the cold foods section of the supermarket and grab a guacamole dip and dig out that unopened sachet of salsa from the last time we had tacos (it always ends up forgotten at our house!).

I like to use the corn chips that are found in the taco section of the supermarket, rather than the Doritos-type ones in the chip section. I find that they are thicker and don’t go as soggy as the chips do.
