how to store Loaded Nachos Supreme

If you have leftovers, put them in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-8 minutes to keep the chips crisper. Microwaving will make the chips soft, but it is faster.

tips to make Loaded Nachos Supreme

  • Use a baking sheet with sides to catch melted cheese and toppings.
  • Do not overload one layer—use two thin layers if you need more nachos.
  • Warm the meat and beans before adding so they heat evenly.
  • Add cold toppings like sour cream and guacamole after baking.
  • Cut jalapeños and olives small so they spread flavor in each bite.

variation (if any)

  • Vegetarian: skip the meat and add extra beans, grilled veggies, or tofu.
  • BBQ: use shredded BBQ chicken and a little BBQ sauce under the cheese.
  • Spicy: add hot salsa or extra jalapeños for more heat.
  • Seafood: try cooked shrimp instead of beef or chicken.
