I say “ Fresh nachos “ as these aren’t drenched in cheese and sour cream but instead served with a fresh salad and a sprinkle of cheese and yoghurt on the top. Don’t get me wrong, cheesy nachos are delicious but it’s nice to have something just as inviting for the kids doesnt just have to be corn chips and cheese. You can use sour cream instead of yoghurt if you fancy but greek yoghurt is something we always have in the fridge and it still adds the lovely creamy element to the beans.

  • 1 onion finely diced
