Substitute for Nachos

I came across this years ago when I started losing weight. I was a huge Nacho fan (which is why I looked like a huge Nacho hehehehe) and wanted to substitute something that would still give me that taste and crunch. So try it out and let me know some feedback!

Mini Nachos/Pizzas

16 low salt Triscuits
1 tsp oregano and basil each
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
low salt salsa
6 TBSP low fat shredded cheese


Preheat broiler. Combine spices and set aside
Place crackers on rimmed baking sheet (I cover mine with parchment or foil paper)
place 1 tsp salsa in middle of each cracker
sprinkle with a bit of cheese

Place about 5" below heat element and broil till cheese just melts, about 15 seconds. Sprinkle with herbs and serve at once.

these really are very good. Makes 2 servings

Per serving:
69 calories
5g Protein
9g carbs
2g fat
1g fibre
264mg sodium

Let me know what you think
