Television Feasts

I am a home cook who backyard gardens and has a serious closet addiction to the Food Network. I envision visiting the world in my own kitchen.

From Julia to Giada, I am a bi-product of the quirky world of anything food television. At age 10 I wanted to lunch with Julia; at 12 I thought sitting at Graham Kerr's table would be bliss; in college I was a diligent voyeur student of Jeff Smith's; and as a newlywed I envisioned myself being Martha. Then the sky opened up and violin music played in the background when I discovered an entire family of food shows on the blossoming food network. Twenty years later I am still a home chef with a backyard garden, yet in my head I am a trained chef who has eaten her way around the world, tasted all things exotic, competed in many challenges, judged the best of the best, and have a circle of friends which includes Emeril, Bobby, Rachael and more. I like to learn and challenge myself simply for the pleasure of all things food. I am a student of the University of Food Network and my textbooks, exams and extra-curricular activities all stem from channel 39.

Ultimate Nachos

It is Junk Food Friday and after being on the run for so long we decided on a TV night.  We started the series 'Boardwalk Empire' (yes now addicted), and made Ultimate Nachos as easy to eat, living room fare.  I had the Spicy Mexican Pork in the freezer from a few weeks ago.  That along with your favorite nacho toppings and you have an easy dinner with little fuss and hardly no clean up!  My kinda Friday Fun.

Ultimate Nachos
no need to print, although go back and grab the Spicy Pork recipe, so better than ground meat and powdered taco seasoning!

Suggested:

Taco Chips, the scoop type work well for this type of nacho dish
Meat of choice
Shredded Lettuce
Chopped Tomato
Chopped Onion
Diced Jalapenos
Shredded Cheese
Taco Sauce
Sour Cream

Others that I did not have on hand:
Sliced Black Olives
Black Beans
