At Planted Expo this year Chef Amy Symington shared this easy recipe for amazing dairy-free Chorizo Nachos. These vegan nachos were so delicious that I knew you would want to try making this at home. So I've written up the recipe from the cooking demonstration.
This dairy-free cheese sauce recipe is so simple and versatile, I'm going to want to drizzle it on everything from nachos to roasted vegetables to Philly Cheeze Steak sandwiches.
I know I am always looking for delicious and easy ways to cook with tempeh, and this healthy Chorizo recipe would be great for tacos or burritos as well as this nacho recipe.
There are so many delicious ideas in this easy Chorizo nachos recipe. Make sure you bookmark it so you can come back to it again and again.
Look how gorgeous this plate of plant-based nachos looks with a little curly lettuce garnish and all of those colourful toppings!
