A) Nachos Supreme

or

B) Stuffed Peppers

My wife makes kick-ass versions of both, and those are the two choices she’s laid out for me today. But, I can’t seem to decide…help!

nachos, go for the nachos.

that sounds really good. Although, I now have a hankering for enchiladas. On the Con Agra board someone mentioned cheating and using the premade taquitos, salsa and cheese to make sort of enchiladas, and I am pretty certain we have eveerything we need…

Are they stuffed Bell peppers? I’d go for them mostly because finger food is usually my second choice, but also becuase I like stuffed peppers a lot.

Nachos.

That’s what we’re having.  
We’re making nachos, guacamole (no more homemade pico de gallo ☹ the homegrown tomatoes ran out!) and watching the Red Sox.

So, what did you have?

We had sandwiches (Turkey and cheese) and some leftover pasta salad (penne and feta). It was yummy!

A bag of nacho chips may not be dinner, but a plate of ground beef, cheese, beans, onions, peppers, mushrooms, tomatos and nacho chips sure is. I don’t want to live in a world where that wouldn’t be looked at as a filling, well-rounded meal.

As a rule of thumb, you should avoid any nutritional ideas that you heard about on a Bud Light commercial.

Why not stuff the Nacho goodness into a bell pepper? It’s a win-win situation.

Brilliant! I am so going to try this. With mini bell peppers. Nacho appetizers!
