Nachos with cheese and sour cream are a popular snack originating from Mexican cuisine and widely enjoyed across North America and beyond. This dish typically consists of crispy tortilla chips topped with melted cheese and a dollop of creamy sour cream. The tortilla chips provide a crunchy base, while the cheese adds richness and flavor. Sour cream contributes a tangy contrast that enhances the overall taste. Nutritionally, nachos are energy-dense due to the carbohydrates in the chips and the fats in the cheese and sour cream. The dish offers calcium from the cheese and protein in small amounts. However, it can be high in saturated fat, sodium, and calories, especially if consumed in large portions or paired with additional toppings like processed meats or extra sauces. Modifying the recipe with whole-grain chips, reduced-fat cheese, or Greek yogurt as a substitute for sour cream can make this indulgent treat a healthier choice.
