Nachos

Cinco de Mayo commemorates the victory of the Mexican militia over the French army at The Battle of Puebla in 1862. In the United States, it is observed as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride and commemorates the cause of freedom and democracy during the first years of the American Civil War. Celebrations assume a wide variety of forms including the display of banners, music, regional dancing, and of course, food and beverages. Therefore this week's recipe is a celebration of Mexican cuisine. These nachos go beyond the simplest form of tortilla chips and shredded cheese to include a variety of toppings including the smoky flavor of hickory BBQ riblets and a sweet bean and corn mixture. The bean and corn mixture may be purchased in Nectar. All other ingredients may be purchased in either Varsity Marketplace, Varsity Morgan, or Varsity Towers. Based upon the calculated cost per serving a batch of these nachos will cost you $8.29 or $2.07 per serving. Happy Cinco de Mayo!
