Notes

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven to restore crispiness. Tips for the best loaded nachos include using a mix of cheeses for extra flavor, adding cooked ground beef or chicken for protein, and trying fresh herbs like cilantro for a nice touch.
