Let’s Go Ahead And Make Air Fryer Nachos A Thing
From bringing limp fries back from near death to resuscitating leftover fried chicken back to its crispy glory, the air fryer is without a doubt a kitchen essential. And with air fryer recipes being so popular and going viral these days, it’s no wonder that popular social media chef, Josh Elkin, found a way to level up nachos using the crucial appliance. The fact that he’s also incorporating HERDEZ® — the number one salsa brand in Mexico — into this recipe shows that it’s top-tier.
In the recipe above, Elkin takes the nacho layer elevator to the 21st floor and adds some distinct pizzazz with savory chorizo, HERDEZ® Traditional Salsa and Traditional Guacamole to level up things. With HERDEZ® in the mix, we can be confident that our taste buds will be treated to the bold and robust flavors of Mexico. HERDEZ® Traditional Salsa and Traditional Guacamole are both made with clean, simple ingredients that follow authentic Mexican recipes, truly capturing the soul of the cuisine.
The result is a massive and legit portion of nachos fit for a hungry squad — or your eager self, no judgment here. With the Mexican trifecta of chorizo, HERDEZ® Traditional Salsa, and HERDEZ® Traditional Guacamole, trust this recipe is giving nothing but authentic flavors.
