What do you call cheese that isn’t yours? It’s nacho cheese! Luckily for you, we don’t just have cheesy words, we also have cheesy nachos (and they’re all yours). The saucy topping includes our Tex-Mex spice blend for subtle heat and delicious flavour, and we've added sour cream for a refreshing balance. The combination in this tasty meal is no joke!

• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. • Finely chop celery. Grate carrot (see ingredients). Drain the sweetcorn.
Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help grate the carrot.
• Slice mini flourtortillas into quarters. • Divide between two lined oven trays (don’t worry if they overlap). Turn with olive oil and season with salt. • Bake until lightly golden and crispy, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook celery, carrot, sweetcorn and plant-based mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 5-6 minutes. • SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less if you're sensitive to heat! Add Tex-Mex spice blend and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add the water and beef-style stock powder to the veggie mince and stir to combine. • Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Season to taste.
TIP: Don't simmer it for too long, you want it to be nice and saucy! Add a dash more water to loosen the mixture if needed.
• Sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese over veggie mince mixture, then cover with a lid (or foil) and cook until cheese has melted, 2-3 minutes.
• Divide nacho chips between plates and top with cheesy veggie mince mixture. • Dollop with sour cream and tear over parsley to serve. Enjoy!
TIP: Serve the nacho chips on the side if you prefer!
Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by sprinkling over the parsley!
