Thank you, Smart & Final, for sponsoring this post. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Are you hosting a nacho bar or a full fiesta for National Nacho Day? I’ve got the inside scoop on everything you need to make your celebration go from mild to hot!

One of the things I adore about my neighborhood is the frequent gatherings. Pumpkin carving parties, tamale making, and Christmas caroling are just some of the things that fill our community social calendar. It doesn’t take much to get everyone together, making memories and having fun.

Another thing I adore about my neighborhood is how convenient it is to pick up everything I need for our celebrations.

Poppy and I headed to our local Smart & Final to pick up everything we needed to celebrate National Nacho Day. That’s right! Nachos get their own day!

You can celebrate National Nacho Day on November 6th with supplies from Smart & Final.

National Nacho Day Supplies

Start with chips and cheese, and then pile on the goodies! You can get them all at Smart & Final!

Here’s what you need for a nacho bar on National Nacho Day:

• First Street Tortilla Chips
• First Street Nacho Cheese Sauce
• Jenno-O Taco Seasoned Ground Turkey, ground beef, and/or shredded chicken
• Black Beans
• First Street Sour Cream
• Assorted Salsas
• Guacamole
• Diced Tomatoes
• Jalapenos
• Shredded Lettuce
• Sliced Olives

Of course, one staple of the nacho bar is the cheese! National Nacho Day just wouldn’t be a celebration without Smart & Final cheese. Did you know Smart & Final sells 13 million pounds of nacho cheese a year?

The First Street Nacho Cheese is made with real cheese. The great jalapeno flavor gives it a slight kick. I opted for the larger 6-pound can for our nacho bar. If you’re fiesta is a little smaller, select the 15-oz size cans.

One of the things I love about a nacho bar is everyone can make their nachos exactly how they like!

Picky kids? They’ll love a DIY Nacho Bar!

Dietary restrictions? Make your nachos suit your needs. Let your guests know that First Street’s Nacho Cheese Sauce is gluten-free, and has 0g of trans fat per serving.

As a host, nacho bars are PERFECT. The nacho cheese is ready to go. I added mine to a crock pot so I could just heat & serve. Other big time savers: I picked up everything I needed in one stop, plus paper products so I wouldn’t have to worry about dishes once the party was done. A rainbow tablecloth from the party aisle made for even easier clean-up.

Want to make hosting a nacho bar even easier? Mix in ready-to-go items like canned sliced olives with fresh ingredients like diced tomatoes.

Whether you’re celebrating National Nacho Day on November 6th or hosting a nacho bar for family and friends, it couldn’t be any easier than shopping at Smart & Final.
