DIY Nacho Bar

Put out chips, queso and tons of toppings and let everyone create their own combo.

By: Food Network Magazine

Nachos can be a substantial meal if you load them up! Make a simple slow-cooker queso and keep it on warm throughout your Super Bowl shindig. Then cook some spicy ground beef and chorizo for topping and whip up a quick homemade pico de gallo and corn relish. Round out your spread with store-bought salsa and guac, plus sour cream—and plenty of chips, of course!

The Starting Line-Up (Pictured clockwise from top right):

Extra Toppings:

  • Sour cream
  • Sliced black olives
  • Sliced pickled jalapeños
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Lime wedges
  • Sliced scallions
  • Fresh cilantro
  • Guacamole
  • Red and green salsas
  • Shredded iceberg lettuce
