Tips for making foil packet nachos

• Don’t want to grill them…no problem bake in an 400 degree oven for 7-9 minutes or until cheese is melted.
• Use a disposable tin instead of foil
• Layers and layers is the key to delicious nachos
• Placing the packets over indirect heat and rotating halfway through so the tortilla chips don’t burn
• Use a thicker sturdier tortilla chip to prevent the nachos from getting soggy.
• Shred the cheese yourself, resist the urge to purchase pre-shredded cheese. Its treated with stabilizers and doesn’t melt as well.

I guarentee these foil packet nachos are going to be part of your summer meal rotation that your family will love.
