Wow these are five stars PLUS! :) I cut this recipe in half to make it for a lunch for myself, and it not only was easy to do but I still have tons left to look forward to for dinner. I also liked broiling all of the ingredients together rather than just the cheese - gave the flavors a chance to mingle to make that five star flavor. I used all low-fat ingredients and topped them off with fresh chopped tomatoes. Will definitely make again - thank you for sharing!

Very simple to make and real tasty. The turkey meat had good flavor. I layered with guacamole and salsa, then the cheeses. Kids and husband loved it. So did I. Thank you for a quick, fast dinner or snack.

My husband and I both liked this recipe. It was incredibly easy to prepare and tasted pretty darn good! Kinda hard to believe for how simple it was to make!! I altered the recipe a little by adding canned jalapeno peppers and fat free refried beans to the nachos. I also used fat free mozz. and cheddar cheeses instead of the jack cheese and light sour cream w/ WOW tortilla chips. I would definitely recommend this recipe to someone who wants to cook a quick dinner to someone who is new to cooking.

This was super - I was the hero mom tonight. I scaled it back and did not give the meat the 'taco' treatment, we like it better seasoned with oregano, basil, parsley, salt and pepper instead of the mix. I layered the chips with sour cream, green salsa, a bit of refried beans, green onions, tomatoes, mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Voila - bake in the oven for 15 min (did not broil) and you are a hero for a night. Served with sour cream, guacamole, salsa and refried beans. First time I have made nachos but definitely not the last.
