INGREDIENTS
8 Boiled Eggs, peeled & halved lengthwise
Southern Pimento Cheese
1/4 cup Mayonnaise
4 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
4 ounces shredded Sharp Cheddar
1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
1/4 teaspoon Onion Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt

Optional Garnishes
Sliced Scallions
Ground Black Pepper

SHEET PAN NACHOS
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350F.
On a standard-sized sheet pan or cookie sheet, line with foil and spread one layer of tortilla chips. Dollop 1/2 of the can of refried beans in tablespoonfuls over the chips. Sprinkle 1/2 of the meat and then follow with 6 ounces of the cheese. Add another layer of tortilla chips and repeat with the remaining half of the refried beans, meat and cheese. Place in the oven until cheese is melted and the nachos are heated through about 10 minutes.
Remove from oven and
top with slices of avocado (or dollops of guacamole), drizzle with sour cream and sprinkle with cilantro and pickled onions. Add limes to the side for garnish. Serve immediately.
Make the Pickled Onions
Mix together the vinegar, water, sugar lime juice, sugar, salt and pepper.
Add sliced onions and jalapeño (optional) to a medium-sized sealable container. Pour vinegar mixture over the top to cover the top of the onion mixture. Cover with lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to pickle (and turn pink!).

Around 20 long bamboo skewers
DIRECTIONS
Bake tater tots according to instructions on bag, flip them halfway through, on a greased baking sheet. (Usually on 400F for 25 mins. Flip and then bake another 10 minutes)
Let them cool off and then add about 6 to each
skewer. (Leave on oven) Shred 1 cup off the block of cheese. (Easier to melt than bagged cheese)
