Hotchos

6/2/2012

One of the undersung aspects of creating a new dish is naming it.  You get to
be creative.   If it resonates, maybe it could even become something
big.

“Hotchos”came about from combining hot dogs and nachos, hence “Hotchos.”  It’s
got a nice ring, doesn’t it?  You can picture fast food restaurants called “Hotchos”
across the world, selling a basic inexpensive meal that can be good for you (or bad) depending the extras you put in it.

The basic dish started as follows:  My kids loved the nachos I made (lots
of grated cheese), but making the same thing over and over was getting old.  So one day I chopped up some hot dogs and put them under the cheese, and Hotchos were born. 
It’s a tasty combination of the chips, hot dogs and cheddar cheese.

You can make it more.  Experiment.  If you have some leftover beef brisket, put that
on top of the chips, add some onions and corn, put the cheese on top and melt that
all together.  If you do that, you get your meat, carbos and veggie all together in one
quick dish.

Ground beef works well.  Soon, I plan to try meatballs on the chips and maybe
add some marinara sauce and make a kind of Italian nachos surprise. 
Maybe we’ll call that “Itchos.”  We’ll see how it tastes first, then work on the
name.
