We can’t believe we never thought of it ourselves. The Christmas nachos recipe takes our favorite sharing dish and gives it an indulgent festive upgrade. Imagine tortilla chips nestled among pigs in blankets, stuffing, and turkey and covered in a mix of melting Camembert, blue cheese, and cheddar. There’s a taste of Christmas in every mouthful.
It’s also the perfect way to use up any Christmas leftovers and bring new life to those Twixmas meals (that no man’s land between Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve when you find yourself eating chocolate for breakfast and turkey and stuffing sandwiches for dinner). Alternatively, it would make a delicious party dish to enjoy over the festive season.
