Loaded nachos are so fun to make! You can top them with your favorite meats, veggies, and sauces! The secret for perfect nachos is to only bake them for 8-10 min so the cheese melts but your tortilla chips remain crispy! If you are adding meats to this recipe, make sure that these are fully cooked before baking your nachos. Another trick to have hot, but fresh tasting nachos, is to not add the pico de Gallo, sour cream, and avocado until the nachos come out of the oven!
