Note

For best results, use sturdy tortilla chips that can hold the weight of the toppings without breaking.

If you prefer a crispier texture, you can bake the nachos in a 375ðF (190ðC) oven for 5-7 minutes instead of using the microwave.

Adjust the amount of hot sauce to suit your spice tolerance. Start with less if you are sensitive to heat.

This dish is best served immediately while the cheese is melted and the chips are still crunchy.

For a vegan version, ensure the cheddar cheese is dairy-free and use a plant-based sour cream alternative.
