I’m back! We are officially moved into our new house and I am officially posting my first recipe from the new kitchen. If I can get all of the boxes off of my countertops, I will post kitchen photos, Yay! So Cinco De Mayo is just around the corner, one of my favorite food holidays. I am a sucker for nachos and all of their cheesy glory. I thought a nice twist would be to use these mini bell peppers instead of tortilla chips. They are so nice and crunchy and give the nachos a little sweetness. You will not miss the chips.
