Dairy-Free Nachos for National Nachos Day

Not only is it Friday (many people’s favorite day of the week) but it also happens to be National Nachos Day – and we can’t wait to celebrate with one of our favorite cheezy dishes. To get you as ready as we are, here are some of our favorite dairy-free nacho recipes:

Loaded Vegan Nachos

Loaded Vegan Nacho Recipe, from Homemade Levity

This is a recipe for all the veggie lovers out there! These nachos feature plenty of garden-fresh ingredients (think tomatoes, jalapeno peppers, lime, olives and chopped cilantro) as well as deliciously dairy-free Daiya Shreds.

Daiya Beer Cheese Nachos

Daiya Beer Cheese Nacho Recipe, from That Was Vegan?

Beer in nachos? It might sound like a strange combination, but it works! If you’re looking for a delightfully decadent way to celebrate this food-forward holiday, we recommend giving this recipe a shot. You could even make it gluten-free by using gluten-free beer and flour, if needed.

Slow-Cooked Black Bean Nachos

What sets this recipe apart from others is obviously the creamy black bean and cilantro dip, which adds wonderful depth of flavor. But we’d also like to call out something else: Instead of Daiya Shreds, this blogger uses Slices that she places in a single layer over the chips so that they melt into an ooey, gooey sheet of cheezy deliciousness.

Vegan Cheesy Kale Nachos

Trying to cut back on the carbs? You can still celebrate National Nachos Day! Just do as this blogger does and sub (or accent) classic tortilla chips with chips of the oven-baked kale variety, and you’ve got a lightened-up version of your favorite cheezy snack. Add the toppings of your choice – like fresh avocado, salsa and Daiya – and you’ve got a beautiful, nutritious and delicious meal.
