Sometimes it seems like tacos are getting all the glory. In fact, a day is dedicated to them every week. However, today we’re celebrating International Nacho Day with 10 vegan recipes that are crispy, sticky, and shareable. Invented in 1943 by a man named Ignacio Anaya, nachos are a hassle-free dish that can be made in minutes and help us use leftovers from our fridge. So, to celebrate this great meal, why not grab your friends and throw a nacho party? Or not, and keep them all to yourself!
