Farmers Market Finds


How much do you love fall? There is nothing better than a lovely crisp fall day with the sun shining and a trip down to the local farmers market.

Obviously being a hockey fan, there are certain things you have to appreciate. One of those things, is a good snack with your beer while watching the game. Sadly for us, we didn't get to enjoy a game with our snack, but while walking around the market, we picked up some delicious local vegetables and put together an amazing snack.

We bought some locally grown produce, including onions, red and green peppers, garlic and tomatoes.





First, I pre-heated my oven to about 350 degrees. 

We used the restaurant-style Tostitos, because they're the biggest surface area.

I sliced up:
- some white onion
- few cloves of garlic
- one green pepper
- one red pepper
- one jalapeno pepper
- two tomatoes 

I grabbed some cheese (I almost always have Kraft Tex Mex low-fat shredded blend in my fridge) and threw it in the oven. I baked for a few minutes (can't remember exactly how long, I checked on it a lot of times) just until the cheese was melted and the nachos were toasty looking.

This is what came out ....






 Served this with some leftover homemade chili I had and made for a delicious lunch!

Hope you lovelies are all enjoying your fall!
