Cinco de mayo fiesta nachos

If you need a dish to go with your margaritas this weekend, look no further! I love adding a healthy spin to a fan favorite and these nachos are just that. We are able to use less cheese because of all of the added flavor of the sweet potato chips, peppers, onions, and cilantro. The beans add protein and fiber to keep you feeling full.
