My husband fell in love with chorizo many years ago and now it’s a staple in our house. We use it in breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. I don’t even care that it’s salty, it’s so delicious. I hope you enjoy these chorizo nachos! Read my tips at the end – they are time savers.

Notes
This has quickly become a family favorite. Easy, flexible, delicious. Not a chorizo fan? Make shredded chicken, or beef nachos. Don’t have peppers? Don’t worry. Add them next time. Pro (ha!) tip: double the veggie and meat mixture and save some for tacos or scrambled eggs the next day.
