Who doesn’t love a giant plate of nachos with everything? These mini nachos are the perfect tailgating snack because they have all the toppings of a loaded plate but in a manageable snack size. They’re also made in the oven to save you time and trouble. The best part about these individual nachos is that since you get your own little mound, you don’t have to worry about anyone hogging all of the guac!
