How, how, how have we not talked about these before?! First up: can they be a full meal? (answer: YES, and in Mexico, they're often breakfast!) So can they be healthy? Well, it depends... if you follow Simon's GENIUS topping ideas you’ll end up with something pretty awesome – and a great gateway meal for introducing kids to combined foods! Want more food tips? Check out the 5 Minute Food Fix Instagram. Things to think aboutChoose thick corn tortilla chips (no Doritos!) Resist urge to overcrowd. Build on oven tray in layers. First chips, then grated cheese, couple of minutes in very hot oven to melt cheese, then out for another layer of chips and cheese to repeat. Cook to perfection – outer chips browned, almost slightly burnt, and cheese crispy and crunchy At the end you can dollop on the other ingredients but again don’t go too heavy. You can always serve excess in separate bowls and if you shove too much on then your risk drowned chips and a soggy, mulchy mess Not the place for fancy pants ingredients (hold back the apple smoked beef cheeks etc.) Make your own tomato salsa!
