There’s nothing better for lazy food than Nachos. If you want to avoid all the fats and ‘bad things’ in conventional or take away foods though, these Spelt cracker Nachos are a great alternative. If you don’t have Mountain Bread where you are, you can use any other spelt crackers.
Adjust the toppings to suit both your tastes, and what you have available. We love cheese, guacamole and salsa, but you might love something completely different! Try it, experiment and see how you get on! Then come back here and share your favourite toppings with us!
