Notes
To make this recipe using She's Nuts Nut Butter or regular peanut butter simply add 2 Tbsp of your favorite nut butter in place of the powdered peanut butter. Depending on the brand of nut butter you use, you may want to start with 1/8 tsp of sea salt and add the other 1/8 if you need more "salted" flavor.
Experiment with sprinkling some extra sea salt on top of your nachos if you would like an even greater salty and sweet combination!
