Rainbow Nachos

In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, we’ll be eating rainbow nachos.  The kids think there’s nothing better than being able to eat chips for dinner.

RED: Salsa.  Fresh, jarred, mild, spicy.  There are so many options.

ORANGE/YELLOW: Cheesy chicken dip.  Combine melted Velveeta, a little bouillon, and cooked chicken.  We did ours in the crock pot with raw chicken, bouillon, and Velveeta cheese chunks and let it cook all day on low.

GREEN: Guacamole.  If you don’t want to make your own, I recommend Wholly Guacamole.  I halved and pitted an avacado, scored a grid into each half, scooped it into a bowl with lime juice, garlic, red onion and pepper.

BLUE/PURPLE:  Use blue corn chips.

Place all the colors in separate bowls on the table and let the kids assemble their own. You may be surprised at how adventurous they are. I was!
