Tomato Basil Nachos

Cheesy and delicious, these crave-able baked Tomato Basil Nachos are ready in under 30 minutes with minimal prep work. This vegetarian, gluten-free recipe is great for lunch, light dinner, or healthy appetizer.

I made these nachos over the summer when my mom's garden was just around the corner. Her garden was teaming with basil. It was almost laughable at the amount she had.

I happily borrowed some of her basil for these nachos and enjoyed every last one because nachos are the greatest quick meal ever.

Final thoughts:

These are super simple. I love making nachos because they're easy to make plus they are fun to eat.

Prep work is minimal. You chop one onion & a tomato, mince garlic, slice the other tomato and grate some cheese. I used the Cabot Tomato Basil Cheese for an extra tomato basil flavor, but regular cheddar would be delish!

To make these crave-able nachos, you sauté one onion and add in some garlic & chopped tomatoes. Then cover tortilla chips with this veggie mixture, sprinkle with cheese, and broil until your cheese is bubbly & melted. Top with a little basil and some greek yogurt for extra flavor and protein. Then dig in!

I hope you have some basil and the other 7 ingredients (that's it woohoo!) because these are tasty and EASY!
