With this gorgeous dish of non-traditional nachos, what better way to “fiesta”? The traditional version will be changed up in a really tasty way by this. To avoid having to tear apart one enormous nacho on your plate, each nacho is served separately from the next.

Reviews
The kids in my class last year loved this! Will be making again this year.
I guess it is all about how you look at something and how it could be used. These really do look like scabs when smooshed out. My kids agreed. I could see these as a Halloween cupcake topper.
My two sons thought this was the best. idea. ever. My husband did, too, to be honest. What an unique and fun idea for gross food not just for Halloween but for boys who like to pretend to eat gross things.
This is creepy, weird, and gross! I guess, that makes it good for Halloween. The recipe says cranberries or cherries work. I had both, so I tried each one. The cherries tasted by far better, but the cranberries looked real. Only thing is, I can’t imagine pressing an entire bowl of these! I did about 20 total and was done. I would take a pic, but quite frankly they just look pretty yucky!
