Number 1 Son LOVES nachos.
When we go out for Mexican food, I'm not sure he ever orders anything
else. If I've got the stuff here at the house to make them, he's a happy
guy. What he doesn't love is soup. He enjoys the flavor of soup but as
he says..."I don't like to drink my dinner". So I knew when I made this I
needed to make it thick enough that he would a) be happy with it as a
soup or b) be able to pour it directly on top of chips. Well...guess
what? It's both! Not only is this super tasty but it can double as a
soup OR a topping!
