It's meat nachos. Essentially you take some decent-sized pieces of meat (I have been using cooked ground beef currently... doesn't matter if it's a ball or patty) and place them on a plate. I have been using 3-5 roughly egg-shaped (in mass not actual shape) units of aforementioned beef. Lay them out evenly on the plate. Then put a piece of cheese on each. NO, not a slice of cheese. You want to cut a chunk of cheese from a block -- you know the big ones you can get from your supermarket, ideally a pound or larger because those are just way cooler. Anyway so you cut off these chunks of cheese, roughly one inch across and half inch thick, and you place one (1) on each piece of meat. Microwave for 45-60 seconds depending on the power of your microwave. Remove from microwave, let cool and enjoy.
Now, I call these Machos. The name is two-fold. First, it's a joining of "Meat" and "Nachos". Second, this is a food for real men and something that real men will love. Women can eat them but it's really a man-food if you think about it.
So there you have it. I have been enjoying Machos lately. For the record i'm using "normal" ground beef (none of that Extra Lean crap), cooked about medium-rare, and Medium Cheddar from Tillamook. Let me know if you think of any cool combos to try! I'm thinking something like dark turkey meat and strong Swiss would be good. Maybe deli Salami and Gouda.
Try it out today and you will agree that Machos > Nachos.
