Chef's Note

"The key to perfect nachos is layering - it ensures every chip gets toppings! For restaurant-style results, warm your serving plates in the oven first, and serve within 5 minutes to prevent soggy chips. Feel free to customize with your favorite toppings like pickled jalapeños, hot sauce, or diced avocado."
