Loved these easy-to-fix & tasty nachos, Lainey. I made a full recipe of them for 2 of us & not a bite was left. The sun-dried tomato & feta I used were both packed in oil w/herbs. The feta was orig cubed, but I cut them to a fine dice & most melted fine. I used a mix of red onion + chives as green onions are rarely available here. I esp liked the contrasting texture & flavor of using both sun-dried tomato & fresh tomato. Made for the Aug Aussie/NZ Swap & thx for sharing this recipe w/us. :-)

I really liked this, but as the feta cheese doesn't melt i will use gouda next time. I used feta cheese from a jar with olive oil, and the sun-dried tomatoes too. Usually i would make my nachos in the oven, but this is so much faster! The kids loved it too. Made for ZWT4, for the Tastebud Tickling Travellers.
