A year ago I made a recipe about nachos of another variety.
A couple weeks ago I was helping my mom make bite-size caramel apple (toffee apple) appetizers. The idea is to use a melon baller to scoop out spheres of apples then coat them in melted caramel from a double-boiler. Great. Except caramel doesn't stick to cut apples which are wet. So the appetizers didn't turn out well. While helping I had the idea to use red and green apple slices arranged like tortilla chips and drizzled with dipping caramel sauce like salsa. The result was supposed to be a plate of holiday nachos.
My sister is a cake decorator in Colorado who just had surgery so she can't decorate. I guess her restlessness infected me to make this.
Enough background.
