Last Minute Menu Ideas

Tomorrow is the big day!  The Seahawks take on the Patriots to see who will walk away the best team in the NFL.  Such an exciting time to be a Seattle native.

We will be watching the game tomorrow at our place with family.  After some consideration of traditional game day favorites (think chili, hot dogs, burgers, etc), I settled on serving pulled pork nachos.  If you're looking for a last minute menu idea, I've included my recipe/ingredients.  I hope you enjoy a delicious meal and cheer the Hawks on to victory!  C'mon Jermaine Kearse!!

Pulled Pork Nacho Ingredients:

2 bags tortilla chips (I love Cabo Loco or Juanita's)
2 bags shredded Mexican blend cheese
2 8 oz cans of olives
1 container pico de gallo
1 lb (or more) pulled pork (un-seasoned - ready made from the store or crock pot, whatever suits your fancy)
3 large avocados (for guacamole)
1 medium onion, chopped and divided
1 bunch green onions
Garlic salt to taste
1 can jalepenos (optional)

Place the chips, cheese, pork, olives, green onions, jalepenos and about 1/2 of the onion together on a baking sheet.  Bake at 350 until cheese is melted.

Mash avocado, garlic salt and remaining onion together in a bowl to create a nice, homemade guacamole.

Top nachos with pico de gallo, sour cream, and guacamole.  Serve hot and enjoy!
