Mexican Street Corn Nachos

Our favorite Mexican Street Corn, Elote, made into Mexican Street Corn Nachos is a big hit at our house. Tortilla chips loaded with all of the Elote deliciousness.

If you love my Elote recipe, you are going to go crazy over my Mexican Street Corn Nachos! I’ll let you in on a little secret…These nachos were actually the result of me having some leftover Elote and leftover taco meat (from my Crunchy Taco recipe) in my refrigerator. I thought – “why not nachos?” That’s it – so easy and a new family favorite recipe was born.

Why do I call these Nachos?

Let’s face it, anything that goes on top of a layer of tortillas can be a nacho! Or at least in my world, that’s what it means. These tortilla chips are topped with Elote, Mexican Street Corn, taco meat, cotija cheese, jalapenos, and then splashed with a squeeze of lime and topped with a dollop of sour cream.
