Who doesn’t LOVE to eat nachos? Especially when they’re healthy and loaded with veggies and fresh basil (so sweet for the end of summer). You can serve these nachos as an appetizer or an afternoon snack. They’re great for adults and kids, as well.

How to Make: Easy Veggie Nachos with Garlic Tahini Sauce

You can make these nachos in less than 15 minutes. As always, I like my recipes to be 3 simple steps or less. Here’s how to make your nachos:

1. Buy your favorite brand of gluten-free tortilla chips or make your own (Here’s my Homemade Tortilla Chip Recipe) and load them onto a large cutting board or serving dish.
2. Load your favorite veggies on the top or sides of the tortilla chips. Drizzle everything with my Garlic Tahini Drizzle.
3. EAT!

Note: My favorite brand of chips if I don’t have time to make my own is Late July. They’re wonderful to serve for any occasion and you can buy them online or at Whole Food Market or health food stores. I really like and trust this brand and I’ve had the pleasure to know their founder personally and she’s lovely!

Tips for Making Veggie Nachos

Feel free to swap out or add any veggies you have on hand. These nachos can be a great way to clean out the fridge!

The tahini sauce recipe tastes the best when you use the brand of tahini from Whole Foods Market. This 365 Brand is thin, easy to drizzle and not chunky like so many other tahini brands.

Option to Add Organic Animal Protein

Because all of our bodies are very different, some of you have requested recipe alternatives that have animal protein options. So, for this recipe, here’s what you can do if you’re in the mood for it.

You can easily add pulled chicken to these nachos. Poach an organic chicken breast in vegetable broth or water with sea salt and cook covered over medium heat for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Then, use a fork to pull and shred the chicken. You can add the shredded chicken on top of the nachos before eating.

When you’re food shopping, try to buy organic ingredients. Here’s why I eat organic: The Benefits of Eating Organic.
