Whether it's lunch, dinner, or a quick snack, the unique blend of tortilla chips, queso, and toppings make nachos a beloved treat.
In 1943, Ignacio Anaya quickly crafted a dish with tortillas and cheese for unexpected guests, creating the first-ever nachos.
Named after Anaya's nickname, "Nacho", the dish became an instant sensation.
Nachos' popularity soared across Texas and the Southwest, eventually making a grand entrance into stadiums in the 1970s.
Today's nachos boast a variety of ingredients from beans, meats, veggies, and sauces, fulfilling everyone's culinary desires.
Celebrate this delicious day by indulging in your favorite nacho plate, be it simple or loaded!
