Nachos

Non-dairy of course, but trust us, you won’t miss the lack of cheese. Chips! Of course you’ll need chips and these days there are many different kinds to choose from including gluten free. We like a multi-grain chip with Chia, Flax, Millet, Quinoa and Amaranth that is organic, non-GMO and gluten free. Remember to watch out for trans fats! (Check the label.)
