Directions
These Irish nachos are great for any party appetizer, or a recipe idea for St Patricks Day or the Superbowl. Some other party go-tos are Greek Loaded Nachos, Jalapeno Popper Nachos and Cheesy Baked Sweet Potato Skins.,Irish nachos are basically loaded nachos made with french fries in place of the tortilla chips. I was really in the mood for them, especially after my husband would not stop talking about this pub he went to that makes the best Irish nachos. My wheels started turning and I knew I had to make them healthier.,Hello sweet potatoes to the rescue! Sweet potatoes are an excellent source of vitamin A, and their crispy skin and sweet flesh are perfect when pairing with the savory-spicy seasonings.,I find cutting them into wedges help keep them sturdier rather than cutting them into thin fries and its quicker to cut. If you have an air fryer you can use this to cook the fries as well.,I combine a full fat sharp Cheddar from Cabot with a combination of light Pepper Jack cheese to give it a little spice.,Feel free to top these with anything you like, a dollop of sour cream or also pico de gallo could also be fun.,Top with some shredding chicken or beef, or even chickpeas for added protein and make it a meal!
