The tomatoes, coriander and onion sprinkled over the top help to make these nachos really colourful and vibrant, and using reduced fat cheese means that you can still enjoy an indulgent tasting dish without worrying about loads of unnecessary calories and Points.
We’ve used store bought tortilla chips in this recipe, but if you’d rather make your own then it’s really simple and they taste fantastic! Simply spray a low calorie tortilla wrap with some low calorie cooking spray, sprinkle paprika and sea salt on both sides and then cut into tortilla chip shapes. Spread on a greased baking tray and bake for around 5 – 7 minutes in a 180°C oven, turning once halfway through.
Serve these Honey and Lime Pork Nachos as a tasty snack, or alongside your favourite Mexican inspired dish!

Hi, this looks amazing. Could you refrigerate the meat mix without nachos overnight?
SharonWednesday 24th February 2021
Hi Amy, so glad you like the look of this recipe. Yes, you could make the meat mixture and refrigerate it overnight.You could add a few tablespoons of water and reheat it in a covered pan, over a low heat until piping hot throughout, before proceeding with the rest of the instructions.Hope you enjoy the recipe!

Hey Amy, yes fromage frais will work fine instead of the quark in this recipe, hope that helps!
