Loaded Italian-Style Nachos
Hearty Baked Nachos with Rustica Tomato Sauce
Loaded Italian-Style Nachos combine crispy tortilla chips with aromatic tomato sauce made from ORO di Parma Passata Rustica and melted mozzarella—perfect for a quick oven-baked snack with a Mediterranean twist.
Ingredients
200 g tortilla chips
700 ml ORO di Parma Passata Rustica
150 g mozzarella, grated or torn
50 g black or green olives, chopped
80 g onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
1–2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
½ tsp salt
1 pinch black pepper
Step 1 : Season the tomato sauce
Pour the ORO di Parma Passata Rustica into a bowl.
Season with olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper, and stir well.
Tip
For more depth of flavor, briefly stir in the raw onions—they’ll soften slightly during baking but will still retain some crunch.
Step 2 : Prepare the nachos
Spread the tortilla chips evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spoon the seasoned passata over them.
Sprinkle the onions and olives evenly over the top.
Step 3 : Baked with cheese
Sprinkle the mozzarella over the nachos.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C (top and bottom heat) for about 5 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
Tip
Don't bake them any longer—the chips should stay crispy.
Step 4 : Finish & Serve
After baking, sprinkle with fresh basil and serve immediately.
