Summertime is a great time to enjoy simple, yet delicious foods. It is also a fun time to get the kids involved in kitchen. Macho Nachos are an excellent recipe to have your kids help you make.
Kids of all ages will love putting all of the ingredients on their nachos! Get all of your ingredients out and ready to go, have cookie sheets ready and let the kids go to town making their own Macho Nachos. When kids get involved in the kitchen they seem to give parents less grief about eating and I’m sure that is something all parents can appreciate.
