It's like a dream come true! First, because you now have permission to eat a plate of nachos as a real meal, and second, because here are dozens and dozens of recipes and ideas to elevate this beloved snack into a legitimate and nourishing sheet pan dinner. Plus dessert. Written by the irrepressible Dan Whalen, Nachos for Dinner combines the mad-genius spirit of his previous books, S'mores! and Tots!, with the practical brilliance of Sheet Pan Suppers. First, Whalen breaks down the nacho's intrinsic appeal to its three essential components-a crispy base, a melty sauce, and a flavorful topper. And then he gives you the three flavor profiles-a lot of umami, a little heat, and something sour or pickled. From there the world is your nacho platter. Of course, there's the chips-and-cheese classic, but then the nachos veer decidedly into dinner, with inspiration from all kinds of favorite flavors and dishes: French Onion SoupChos, Cobb Salad Nachos, Fish Taco Nachos, Banh Mi Nachos! And there are plenty of not-chos (that is, nachos that use other ingredients for the chips)-like LasagnChos, Scallion Pancake Nachos, and Pretzel and BratChos. Even Apple Pie Nachos for dessert.
