It’s tough to beat the combo of warm tortilla chips, melted cheese, and spicy black beans. In other words…NACHOS!
nachos / nah-cho-zz! / noun
1. tortilla chips topped with melted cheese and warm goopy beans
2. an increasingly popular exclamation used to denote an impending, much deserved reward; similar in use to Yes! or Right on!
We’re using chipotles in adobo to give the beans some real kick, and the result is a combo that can be described best with one word…
