Delfino Nachos and 1-Up Dip – Nintendo Party

Another dish that I made for my son’s Nintendo themed birthday party was nachos and guacamole…but not just any old nachos and guacamole…Delfino Nachos and 1-Up Dip!

I’m afraid the photo of my nachos is a crop of a bigger picture, but you get the idea ^_^ The amount I did was enough for 10 people.

Delfino Nachos

Ingredients

• 1 big bag of tortilla chips
• 1 jar of salsa
• 2 big handfuls of grated cheese
• Jalapeños chilli peppers (optional)

Method

1. Put the tortilla chips into a large, shallow, heatproof bowl.
2. Spoon over the salsa.
3. Cover everything with grated cheese (I used Cheddar)
4. Sprinkle over the jalapeños if you are using them.
5. Place under a hot grill until the cheese starts to melt, bubble and brown off.
6. Serve with sour cream and guacamole…or 1-Up Dip!

Now onto the 1-Up Dip which I thought was a fun name for the guacamole…because 1-Up Mushrooms are green…and so is this dip…and not because it has mushrooms in it!

1-Up Dip

Ingredients

• 2 ripe avocados
• 1 red chilli, finely sliced
• 2 spring onions, finely sliced

2. Scoop the flesh from the avocado and place into a bowl. Mash the avocado flesh with a fork

5. Season with salt and white pepper (again, to taste)
