- Apple nachos
I’ve seen this idea floating on the internet for ages, but guys, it’s SUCH a good snack. Apples drizzled with nut butter (I went almond this time), and sprinkled it with granola and chopped salted dark chocolate. This was delicious and I see many variations in my future.
I picked these up at Paper Source over spring break, and my aunt actually saw them, thought of me, and sent them to me in a care package.
They’re cute and funny and definitely a good way to feel a little better about life. We could all use that sometimes, yeah?
- My cousins’ drawings
Also a part of that care package my aunt sent? These adorable drawings from my cousins. Sure, the candy and nut butter in the box are awesome and I will definitely enjoy those, the drawings are my favorite part. I love these kids and their art absolutely brightened my day.
I don’t wear nail polish on my fingers because it chips too quickly and then the perfectionist in me just can’t take it, and I have to take it off immediately. However, this is super sheer and sparkly, so it’s hard to tell when it chips a little. I’ve discovered this week that having painted nails makes me feel like I have my life together a little more, which is always a good thing.
Oops, two weeks in a row of Arman recipes. Oops. But they’re so good. This was lunch after my econ midterm on Thursday. Double-chocolate pancakes topped with strawberries and a little maple syrup? Yes, please.
And that’s all for me this week! I’m going to go to office hours today, hopefully do some yoga, and studystudystudy for econometrics. Have a great weekend!
Favorite nacho toppings?
What are you loving this week?
Do you have any plans for this weekend?
Linking up with Heather
Well. I sure know what snack I’m making this weekend. That sound so dang good!
Yes! I hope you love it!
Arman is a recipe genius. He is great for actually taking all the stuff we throw in a bowl, measuring it out and calling it a recipe. My favorite nacho topping is guacamole, but I could just eat all the chips. I love the crunch and salt. I love the Harry Potter drawings, what a great artist
Guacamole is amazing. Great for nachos and everything else 😀
I feel as though apple nachos are just not my thing! Haha! I need to slice and spread, it’s an art!!! I have to get the perfect ratio of apple to nut butter 😉
Confession: I had some extra almond butter on the side to make it all a little more perfect 😉 I get where you’re coming from!
For regular nachos–chorizo. For irregular nachos–blueberries. Totally unexpected.
OMG I haven’t had chorizo in forever! But it’s so good ? Ooooh blueberries? I like the way you think.
Okay, I totally need to make apple nachos- how fun and delicious! I really like that pink OPI too, my nails are naked right now so I need some inspiration.
Hahaha my nails are usually naked but I’m liking the change 🙂
Okay, those apple nachos actually look like art.. and you also get 10 points for using chocolate CHUNKS instead of chips 😀
I actually love ground beef on nachos- My mum makes these awesome ones with it! This weekend…well, brunch tomorrow and then some work later in the day. Don’t study TOO hard. 🙂
10 points to Gryffindor 😀 And OF COURSE! Chunks are such a good choice.
And my family was the family that threw tortilla chips, ground beef, cheese, and topping on a baking sheet, baked it for a bit, and called it dinner. Ground beef is great 🙂
Umm… your apple nachos look insanely good. SO MANY AWESOME INGREDIENTS! <3
This week I am loving all the nuts and nut butters AND all the apples – so that just means I have to make apple nachos right!?
Thanks, Kristy! And nuts and nut butter and apples are always faves in my book. 😀 Apple nachos sound perfect for you!
Those apple nachos look AMAZING!!! Have a lovely week <3

Thanks, Edye 🙂 Happy Monday!
Good luck on your finals this week. Tomorrow is my last one, thank the Lord.
Your apple nachos look freaking amazing- making those asap!
Jealous that yours are finals, because mine are midterms! 😉 Also that you’re done for good! Congrats, Kate!
Those apple nachos are such a cute idea! Give me a little caramel drizzle over green apples and I’m in heaven!
Ahhh I LOVE that sweet and tangy combo! Apple nachos sound right up your alley!
Oh my gosh I TOTALLY relate to the fingernail polish thing. As horrible as I know acrylics are for my nails, I finally bit the bullet and started getting them just cause looking down and seeing them all long and elegant literally makes my day better. And like I have it together hahah
I’ve never done acrylics, but I had a gel manicure once and it lasted for three weeks, even though I spend a ton of time baking/cooking/washing my hands during that time period. It was so great! Expensive-ish, but great 😉
