Notes
- Although not traditionally Mexican, some sliced olives are delicious on top of nachos.
- The type of tortilla chips you choose are important. Go for the best quality you can, and the thicker ones that will hold up with the layering.
- But sure to layer and overlap the tortilla chips, so the cheese doesn't all drip through. You don't want wasted cheese.
- Be really careful when removing the nachos from the air fryer. Remove them by holding onto the sides of the baking paper and then it can be served on the paper.
- Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving to really freshen it all up.
- Avoid overcrowding the air fryer, as you need to let air circulate.
