Can you believe it?? The football season is almost over and the big game day is approaching fast now!!! This past weekend while we were watching the playoffs we opted to do a DIY Nacho Bar! I can’t believe how easy it was to do, and it’s on the menu for the big game now!!! I loved we were able to snack off it as we were hungry, and the prep work was easy! Thank you to Rico’s Cheese for sponsoring this DIY Nacho Bar, the post contains affiliate links.
Now football is a huge part of our life!!! If we aren’t at soccer games on the weekend we are tailgating at home, don’t ask me how we survive those summer months. We still make the food but man it’s not the same with out the games to watch on tv!!! The kids love to order nachos when we eat out but let’s face it 90% of the nacho toppings they actually won’t eat, or the cheese has to much of a kick! When it came to the play offs Michael was begging to go get nachos, so we went frugal and made them at home!
We picked up Ricos cheese at Walmart when we were there getting the rest of our supplies for nachos! This was such a great price, I had been worried it would blow our budget but we picked up extras for the big game day too! Now the rest of the toppings you can totally customize to what your family or guests like.
DIY Nacho Bar Topping Ideas:
- Meat we chose ground beef for our nachos
- Ricos Cheese
- Nacho chips
- Sour cream
- Guacamole
- Black olives
- Tomatoes
- Jalapenos
- Green Onions
DIY Nacho Bar Tips:
Prep your meat topping early!! Using frozen cooked ground beef (see more -> here) I did up our ground beef with taco Seasoning and fajita seasoning!
Use Ricos cheese as your topping!!! Seriously it’s so easy to warm up and serve up with your nachos!! Plus the cheese is Trans Fat-FREE and is made with no hydrogenated oils
Prep your veggies up early. I like to do mine the night before, it makes the game day more enjoyable and spend less time in the kitchen
Serve on paper plates and enjoy!!! (trust me this is a lot less dishes)
I mean how amazing is this!!!
