This vegan black bean nacho recipe is a favourite of featured vanlifer Miss Kiff. You can read her feature, right here. Packed full of different flavours, and a delicious kick, we’re sure it will be being made by vanlifers worldwide.
This is one of my favourite things to make in the van, black bean nachos brings an authentic mexican flavour, and is great to share. This recipe is vegan but you could use feta rather than the vegan version should you not want this dish to be vegan. This recipe calls for harissa to give it a delicious kick! If you want to make your own there is a really simple recipe right here at the Holy cow vegan website.
