This recipe would be great for the kids as I used a 12 ounce package of Mann’s Broccoli Cole slaw and it wasn’t noticeable as a veggie which was not my intention but that’s how it turned out.  I tossed the Broccoli Slaw with some taco seasoning and sauteed it so that it took the place of meat in the nachos.  My recipe serves 4 and using 12 ounces of Mann’s and 2 tablespoons olive oil instead of 12 ounces of hamburger so it saves 200 calories and 9 grams of saturated fat per serving and adds all of your daily requirements for Vitamins A and C, now there’s a boost for your nutrition.  So good that I’ll be making this time and time again.
