CHEESY SNACK MIX

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside. Heat the vegetable oil and 3 popcorn kernels in a large saucepan over medium heat. When the kernels pop, add the remaining popcorn and cover the pan. Cook, shaking the pan frequently, until the popping has almost stopped, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand for a few minutes, covered. Uncover and discard any unpopped kernels.
• Transfer the popcorn to a large bowl and add the cereal, sesame sticks and pretzel sandwiches; toss well. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; whisk in the garlic powder, mustard powder, sugar, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Pour the butter mixture over the snack mix and toss well to coat.
• Spread the snack mix in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake, gently stirring halfway through, until the popcorn is crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool. Transfer to a large bowl, add the cheese balls and toss to coat.

QUICK MICROWAVE NACHOS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Spread the tortilla chips in an even layer on a microwave-safe plate. ( Important : Never use a metal sheet pan or metal dish of any kind in the microwave.) There are no set quantities of these nachos. The important thing is to spread the tortilla chips in an even layer on the plate, with just a little overlap. If you stuff the plate with too many tortilla chips, you won't be able to cover them all with the cheese.
• Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the chips.
• Top with the jalapeño slices, if desired.
• Heat on high for 1 minute, just until the cheese is melted. Be sure to watch the nachos as they cook. Microwave ovens vary dramatically, and so your cooking time will also vary. Let the nachos stand for a few minutes to finish cooking.
• Serve immediately with sour cream, homemade pico de gallo , sliced black olives, chopped fresh tomatoes, and/or guacamole . Enjoy.

ULTIMATE CHILI "CHEESE" NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• For the meatless chili: Heat the oil in a medium-large saucepan. Stir in the onions and red bell pepper and fry at a gentle sizzle until just starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the kidney beans, plant-based meat, green beans and garlic. Turn up the heat to hear that sizzle and cook, about 1 minute.
• Stir in the tamari, tomato puree, Worcestershire sauce, chili paste, chopped tomatoes and 1/3 cup water. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cook, checking and stirring occasionally, 15 to 20 minutes. The sauce should be rich, tangy and thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Finally, stir in the cilantro.
• For the nacho "cheese" sauce: Heat the oil in a medium pan, stir in the flour and cook, about 1 minute. Gradually stir in the milk using a wooden spoon or whisk to avoid any lumps. Bring to a gently bubbling simmer and cook until the sauce thickens to a creamy consistency and coats the back of a wooden spoon, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the nutritional yeast, chipotle paste, bouillon and turmeric, stirring constantly to marry all the flavors, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• For the assembly: Spread the nacho chips on a baking sheet and bake to warm them through, about 3 minutes.
• Spread the chips out onto a platter or in individual bowls. Spoon the nacho sauce onto the warm tortilla chips, add the chili in the middle and top with the jalapenos and cilantro.

AIR FRYER NACHOS

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C) for about 3 minutes. Line air fryer basket with foil or a parchment liner, and spray with cooking spray.
• Spread out chips in the fryer basket in a single layer, slightly overlapping chips, so the cheese doesn't melt through. Lightly dust chips with taco seasoning to get a pop of taco flavor, and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Don't overcrowd the basket.
• Top cheese with olives and tomatoes and place basket in the air fryer.
• Air-fry until cheese is melted and chips are starting to slightly brown on the edges, 5 to 6 minutes. Watch closely to be sure the cheese doesn't burn. If necessary, add additional time until you reach your preferred crispness.
• Move nachos to a plate, garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve immediately.
