SPICED TURKEY NACHOS WITH HOMEMADE CHEESE SAUCE AND ''CRISPER DRAWER'' SALSA
Variety is the spice of life, and sometimes ground beef nachos and vegetarian nachos ask for the night off. I like making nachos with ground dark meat chicken but even more so with turkey. The turkey takes on the spices as it cooks and melds nicely with the richness of the cheese sauce. I opened my fridge one day and made a salsa from what was hanging around in the crisper drawer. There were no tomatoes, jalapeno or cilantro, so I came up with the crunchier, brighter salsa below. You can make all the components of these nachos in advance then heat and serve when you're ready. You will notice repeat ingredients in the different parts of this recipe. This makes the recipe look more complex than it is, but the taste is worth it! PS - I never say no to a big bowl of guacamole to go with this.... You can also do a plate of fried or scrambled eggs on the side and serve this nacho platter as a Mexican breakfast!

Steps:
- Make the cheese sauce: In a medium pot, bring the milk to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in the cheese and season with salt to taste. In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cool water until it becomes a smooth paste. Whisk the paste into the cheese sauce. Cook, stirring, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the Worcestershire, hot sauce and garlic. Taste for seasoning. Shut off the heat. Keep warm.
- Cook the turkey: In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, add the scallions, garlic and a pinch of salt and cook until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the turkey in a thin layer and season with salt. Sprinkle with the chili powder and red pepper flakes. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the meat browns and cooks through, 8 to 10 minutes. Shut off the heat. Allow it to rest for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Make the salsa: In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, lime zest and juice, pickle juice and hot sauce. Toss in the carrots, celery, scallions and radishes with a generous pinch salt. Taste for seasoning.
- Serve: Spread the tortilla chips in an even layer on a baking sheet that can double as a serving platter. Warm the chips in the oven for a few minutes as you heat up the meat. Remove the chips from the oven and spoon the meat all over the chips. Top with spoonfuls of the salsa. Pour cheese sauce over top and sprinkle with jalapeno slices. Serve immediately with sour cream, additional salsa and cilantro (if using) on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir shallots in the hot butter until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir jalapeno peppers into shallots and cook until fragrant, about 2 more minutes. Stir cranberry jelly into the shallots and peppers until melted.
- Mix shredded turkey with jalapeno-cranberry jelly mixture in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Arrange tortilla chips on the prepared baking sheet and fill each chip with 1 tablespoon turkey mix. Top each chip with 1/2 teaspoon of white Cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese topping is melted and the chips are golden, about 10 minutes.

- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Add onions and garlic, stirring well and cook for 2 minutes. Add in ground turkey, breaking up with a large wooden spoon. Cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes.
- While turkey is cooking, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and spread tortilla chips out. You can also chop the tomatoes, lettuce, onions and avocado at this time. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, paprika, onion powder, cayenne, salt and pepper. Add it to the turkey and stir well (continuing to break up the pieces of turkey with the spoon) until combined, then stir in chicken stock. Toss well to combine.
- Heat the broiler on your oven. Add half of the cheese over top of the chips. Evenly spread turkey over the cheese and chips, then cover with the black beans and remaining cheese. Place under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, just until cheese is melty and gooey and the chips are warm. Remove from the oven and immediately cover with tomatoes, lettuce, onions, avocado and cilantro. Serve with yogurt/sour cream and chives. (AND BEER.)
