Nic’s Nachos

January 1, 2021 /

What’s up Nickels! Here is the monthly food & wine selection. Nic’s nachos are a quick and easy crowd pleaser. As we are not currently hosting crowds, it is worth it to note these nachos reheat nicely. Also, this meal’s ingredients will cost you very little. I am not sure of the exact amount, this is not the blog for that but it is worth it.
