A different take on nachos – enjoy them with the flavours of Greece! These Greek nachos are just as easy to make as regular nachos, but incorporate all those Mediterranean flavours we love. Homemade pita chips are dressed with chopped kalamata olives, salty capers and ripe tomato. Next we cover with oodles of fetta cheese before grilling. To serve, whip up a delicious tzatziki-style garlic-yoghurt sauce to spoon over the top.
This dish incorporates both our creamy Olympus Fetta Cheese, as well as our Greek-Style Unsweetened Yoghurt. It feels a little healthier somehow, without compromising at all on flavour. These are a real crowd pleaser!
