Plant-Based Trash Can Nachos
RECIPE BELOW!! The College World Series is in full swing, and we’ve been watching LSU meticulously (GEAUX TIGERS!). It’s been fun! I put the babe to bed, the older kiddos get to stay up late and watch… popcorn snacks… it’s been a great summer! Anyway, my husband had mentioned a couple months ago that I needed to do trash can nachos for the website, so with LSU getting close to the finish, I figured what better time to break out the party food! Lol!
Trash can nachos are very popular in the south. Most times it’ll have some kind of meat as one of the features, sometimes barbecue, sometimes shrimp or crawfish. It really is a free for all! Some are served on a legit frisbee. All of them have 1 thing in common though: layers of textures and goodness.
SO, naturally we have to make it plant-based. And you know what? It’s so freaking easy. It makes me wanna call up our local restaurant and be like, “So, you realize if you do a plant-based trash can nacho and sell it for $15, your profit margins are going to increase because you’re using beans, right??” Haven’t mustarded up that kind of courage yet.
Cashew queso is a must. it’s simple and easy! Add that acid in there: lime juice makes a WORLD of difference! And so does the jalapeno brine if you’ve got it.
It’s time to raid you pantries and fridges, people!!! Anything is game!! IT’S GAME TIME!! GEAUX TIGERS!!
P.S. Tommy White, my children love you. Best of luck!
