\"Greek<\/p>\n

When I was a teenager I used to work at a concession stand where we sold, amongst other things, tortilla chips with bright orange nacho cheese sauce. Holding a single chip beneath that warm cheese dispenser was the perfect guilty snack on a busy work day.<\/p>\n

\"Greek<\/p>\n

My tastes have changed a bit with age and while I no longer crave that crazy cheese, I do still want to eat nachos pretty much all the time. And I have a secret for you.<\/p>\n

Nachos can be a real meal.<\/p>\n

\"Greek<\/p>\n

I'm not talking about the glue covered chips you get at a basketball game, but homemade, hearty, veggie-topped pitas that explode with flavor. I actually eat nachos for dinner every now and then. I love finding new combos and toppings. These Greek nachos combine all of my favorite Greek flavors and textures. You get a nice crunch from the onions and cucumbers while the tomatoes and feta give a soft, tangy bite.<\/p>\n

\"Greek<\/p>\n

If you haven't roasted chickpeas before, just know that it is simple and worth the little wait. Making your own pita chips will also take a few extra minutes but will allow you to control the ingredients to some extent and make a slightly healthier meal. Of course if you prefer you can always use store-bought chips.<\/p>\n

\"Greek<\/p>\n

If you're really longing for something creamy you could drizzle the nachos with Greek yogurt (see how that works?) or hummus. This recipe is very adaptable to whatever you have on hand.<\/p>\nPrint<\/a><\/span>
