Honestly, who doesn’t love nachos?
Melted cheddar cheese over crunchy tortilla chips all warm and gooey in your mouth. Well, today is another seemingly make-believe food holiday dedicated to this Mexican staple. Nachos were actually invented 74 years ago in 1943 when restaurant head, Anaya, found herself without a chef and decided to whip something up quick for her guests which was a group of wives of soldiers who were out shopping and looking for something to eat. The new dish spread from Mexico up to Texas and the Southwest and eventually became an American favorite.
Nachos have even evolved from a snack food to more of a meal with the creation of “loaded nachos.” Adding ground beef, peppers, beans, chicken, lettuce, tomato, olives, salsa and guacamole on top of the chips and cheese is a bar favorite. Of course you should definitely celebrate this national day by heating up some chips and cheese in the microwave (which is probably what I’ll be doing while I watch Friends and procrastinate my homework) but if you live near an On The Border, they are giving 50% off on nachos today. So round up some friends and celebrate with extra cheese and margaritas.
But if you want to spare yourself the calories, check out some of these funny tweets from the Nacho lovers of the internet along with some amusing memes.
And that's when he whispered those sexy words to me, "let's go eat nachos in bed."
