You can’t exactly make bad nachos. No matter what you do, chances are that this classic snack will taste great. Making perfect nachos, on the other hand, requires some effort and planning. Luckily for you, we got some tips that will help you do it without much fuss.

Choose Thick and Sturdy Chips

Thin crispy chips might seem more palatable, but they are no good for nachos. You want the thick and sturdy variety that will be able to take on the weight of the toppings.

Find the Right Combination of Cheese

Cheese combinations can make or break your nachos. You want a combo that goes well together flavor-wise but it also melts well. Cheddar or Jack cheeses are your best choices.

Chop the Proteins Into Fine Bits

There are no places for big chunks of meat on your nachos. If you’re adding protein, make sure you chop it into fine bits, so you can get some with each bite.

Add More Layers

The more layers your nacho has, the better. The best technique is to add a layer of chips, then a layer of cheese, and then top with other ingredients. From there, add more cheese and then take it for a spin in the oven.
