I’m Rachel Rae. On opposite day. This weekend I did a refrigerator audit and found I had approximately nothing to eat.   So I came up with a recipe I thought I’d share.

To Make String Cheese Nachos :

1. First build your base.  In this case, I used a half of a bag of stale Trader Joe’s Blue Corn tortilla chips.  I contemplated using pretzel rods but found the surface area unsuitable.

2. Next, look for something you can melt.  In this case I found two sticks of mozzarella string cheese. Peel cheese gingerly and spread on top of the chips.

3. Microwave your delicious nacho treat for approximately 2 minutes less than I did.  That brown area you see is burnt string cheese, which I think is a significant scientific discovery. I did not know this was possible.

Note: For a healthy variation you can add vegetables. I had no vegetables, but I did have giardiniera that I found in an open jar in my refrigerator. Bingo!
