What do you call cheese that isn't yours? Nacho Cheese!

Everyone likes nachos, but everyone likes different things on them. Rather than trying to choose toppings that are universally inoffensive, try this:



give each guest a tray of chips and an array of potential goodies, and let them cook their own!  




A handy tip: use small foil trays. Spread the layer of chips, and broil on low for 3 minutes until chips are hot and crispy.  Then add toppings and broil for a few more minutes until cheese melts. Ingest, and repeat :)

The topping potential is limitless! Provide an elaborate spread of meats and cheeses, or just a can of chili and some Cheez-Whiz.

Serve with sour cream and guacamole.

Letting everyone choose their toppings makes it easy to accommodate guests with food allergies. (also, it allows me to watch the game while my guests forage for themselves)
