Delicious! Worth the price of admission for the cumin roasted cauliflower alone. I love the variety, creativity, and sheer inventiveness of some of these recipes.

As a cookbook collector, I have something so FUN for all of you. Nachos for Dinner: Surprising Sheet Pan Meals the Whole Family Will Love by Chef @tfimb is his 5th cookbook due to be released on Dec. 21, 2021 by @workmanpub ! Thank you so much for my advanced review copy!

There's no reason why sheet pan food can't taste just as good or look even more incredible than the fancy classics. These incredibly creative, economical recipes included in the 160 page cookbook will have your friends & family gathering round your table. It can practically cause your taste buds to cry when you get dull, soggy nachos; however, this cookbook includes the secret in getting what we all love about nachos —the perplexity of crispy, salty chips covered in delicious sauciness with flavorful, messy toppings. Chef Dan Whalen recipes follow the essential Crispy Base + Melty Sauce + Flavorful Topping to make a perfect sheet pan dinner!

Whether you opt for the classic nachos or Banh Mi Nachos, this is a whole new level of turning these shareable, internationally underappreciated snacks into a satisfying dinner. @tfimb shows readers just how brilliantly versatile nachos are while elevating their status in the culinary world as a plate that deserves to be served as a main dish. At home, I will be keeping some of these magic recipes in rotation. Check out this fun cookbook in December !

With multiple food allergies I could not find much in this book that was useable and no modifications were offered.

Thanks to NetGalley and Workman Publishing Company for the digital ARC of this cookbook, in exchange for my honest review..

One of my favorite things about a cookbook based on a simple idea (I mean how hard are nachos?!) is having everything in one place. This cookbook pulls together all the layers of nachos - from bases to sauces to hearty fillings to toppings - giving several options of each, plus plenty of inspiration for full nacho pans. I'll be honest, one of my favorite things to do with a cookbook or a recipe is to use it as inspiration and then adjust the idea with my own experience and ideas. This book lends really well towards that. I see plenty of recipes that I would try "as-is", but I see a few that I want to try with my own version of guacamole, homemade beans, or bolognese sauce. There are plenty of ideas in Nachos for Dinner and many of them are, indeed, hearty enough to be a meal.

Last night’s bedtime reading left me wanting a midnight snack (I refrained - barely)! Tacos are one of my favorite food groups. Nachos are just deconstructed tacos, right?

3 ⭐️ for the (mostly) yummy sounding recipes. I wish there were more! There are also lots of color photos, which is a huge plus in my book. I enjoyed some of the nontraditional ideas and am planning try one soon.

Look for this title to hit the shelves late December 2021.

I love nachos! This was a great book that inspired many meals to come. I love the all the different and amazing sounding recipes. Ways I would never have thought to make nachos and can't wait to try them all.

A great book with a wide variety of how to be creative with nachos. The author uses a variety of influences and sets out all the recipes so well and clearly.

If you love nachos, you will not be disappointed by this book. If you love creativity you will not be disappointed by this cookbook. If you like drool worthy photos, you will also not be disappointed. (Though I would be lying if I said I didn't want to see more) I personally can't wait to use my next paycheck to purchase this cookbook. Nachos are hands down one of my favorite foods, and this book takes that love to a new level that still sounds delicious. Cannot wait to explore this book in the kitchen and I will update my review as I do that. It also includes a small, not as enticing dessert section, though that's understandable as nachos are typically not sweet, nor is it what you think of whenever you think of nachos.

Thank you #netgalley for allowing me the chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

I will so buy a copy of this when it comes out! ( I read an advanced reader's copy.) This book contains so many creative elements to combine into many different fun dinners, complete with a few desserts! The author uses many different flavor traditions, everything from the traditional Mexican to Korean and southern shrimp and grits. His enthusiasm about combining flavors in new ways makes the reader want to break out a sheet pan and get started. There are many recipes in this book that I can see using on a salad if you can't afford the calories from chips and cheese on a regular basis. In any case, this book will help make dinner more interesting for quite some time.

This was a very specific cookbook but I was definitely here for it. I loved reading different nacho recipes and I'll definitely be trying a ton of them.

This is such a fun cookbook! We frequently have BBQ nachos and regular nachos for dinner in our household so I was hoping to get some new inspiration in from this one and it did not disappoint! Bulgogi nachos and Lasagna'chos using pasta chips? Genius!!

I think you could use this book as part of a super fun housewarming gift! A basket with this, some cute kitchenware and the makings of one of the recipes would be so cute! Love this one.

I thought this book was very clever. Before this, I had only known nachos one way. However, now I intend to purchase the book and work my way through it. Won't my Mexican friends be surprised!

This is a fun and different take on modern cookbooks, fulfilling a niche between traditional meals, “lunchbox blues,” and snacks books. Loved the color splash and photography choices. I am planning on ordering copies of this one as gifts for apartment-living college students in my family.

I was unable to download this book. It says that it was sent to my kindle, but while I can find my other titles, I have not been able to locate this one.

If you love Nachos then this is your cookbook! According to the author, you can “nachofy anything”! And he proves this theory in his recipes for breakfast and dessert nachos, nachos you wouldn’t think could be possible such as Fish Taco Nachos, Lamb Gyro Naanchos, or Apple Pie Nachos. I appreciated how this cookbook begins with a variety of recipes for the main components like, the cheese sauce, the chips, salsas and guacamole. I wish there had been more photos, I love food photos! Thank you to Netgalley, Workman Publishing, and Dan Whalen for this eARC in exchange for my honest review.

You must stop what you are doing and go buy this book NOW!! It is a dinner time (lunch? breakfast!?) game changer. I was expecting to try a lot of really interesting nacho ideas, and yes, there are so many of those in here... think LASAGNA nachos! But above and beyond that, there are also tips on how to make tortilla chips at home, nacho cheese sauce, and so many delicious salsas and dips.

I went with the Philly Cheesesteak Nachos with homemade tortilla chops and cheese sauce, and I don't think I've ever had a better plate of nachos... all in the comfort of my own home!!!

Thank you Dan Whalen & NetGalley for elevating my love of nachos to the next level!

NACHOS FOR DINNER? Yes, please!

Obviously the title of this book drew me in. I’m a snack food kind of person, so the thought of turning a snack food for dinner, I just couldn’t resist.

Starting with, a brief history of nachos, author, Dan Whalen taught me a few things I didn’t know. Seriously, my outlook on these tasty chips has been broadened and I can’t way to make my first, nacho dinner nummy.

Just a fraction of the recipes you’ll find in NACHOS FOR DINNER are . . . Tortilla Chips (of course), Nacho Cheese Sauce, Corn Salsa, Roasted Tomato Salsa, Creamy Crunchy Slaw, BLT Guac, Herby Crema, Meaty Pinto Beans, Red Curry Chickpeas, Fajita-Style Veggies, Taco-Style Ground Beef, Chicken Tinga, Cilantro Lime Shrimp, Caprese Nachos, French Onion Soupchos, Cheesy Bacon Potato Chipcos, Scallion Pancake Nachos, Lobster Nachos, Italian Sub Nachos, Chicken Parm N0t-Chos, Lasagn’Chos, Pretzel Bratchos, Breakfast Nachos, Trashy Microwave Nachos, Apple Pie Nachos . . . and so any more.

I love having photos of all the recipes. While not every recipe has a single page photo of the finished dish, most have a photo of some size.

Clear instructions plus creative combinations equal delicious meals based on one of the world’s favorite chips . . . Nachos! You simply can’t go wrong!

Great ideas for more "grownup" nachos and nachos for meals! Love the breakfast nacho ideas. Who knew nachos could be so much more awesome?

Overall, I greatly enjoyed this read and it sparked my imagination and creativity. The author is clearly an experienced and highly-recognized chef, yet focuses on something simple: nachos. He provides a brief review of nachos, discusses the basics of nacho recipes, and offers opportunities for readers to be as simple or complicated as desired during preparation.

There is a great deal of humor mixed throughout, which is great, as sometimes recipe books can read rather dry. My favorite parts of the whole book are little charts he has sprinkled throughout, which describe basic food types and recipe ‘templates’ (if you will) for a balanced dish. This allows great creativity with the readers and allows them to better understand the relationship between recipe counterparts.

The structure of the book is also appreciated. The author begins with various recipes to begin with parts of nachos, ie protein preparation or salsas, then moves on to “putting it together”, applying these to specific nacho recipes. I was also surprised and impressed that the author has nacho recipes for breakfast, dinner and dessert, and has many vegan and vegetarian options as well.

I highly recommend. It is worth the money and read. Even if nachos is not always what you are interested in preparing, the details about preparing a balanced meal are applicable to all food genres.

Thank you NetGalley for my free copy. The details above are mine without influence.

This is such a mouth watering food book! Who knew there were so many different ways to utilise the humble nacho? The book allows you to make a vast array of different meals from a overwhelming variety of cuisines and also the accompaniments you can have with them. This is a perfect gift!
