Family Nachos
Inspiration/Story:
My family and I love to make Nachos for a late night snack. They are quick to make and it can serve a lot of people. It's something we eat while watching Netflix or hanging out. We don't have to eat it at the table and it's something we can all enjoy. We like to experiment with all different toppings but this Berbere beef recipe is a family favourite forsure.
