Looking for a crowd-pleasing, comfort food twist that’s crispy, cheesy, and absolutely loaded with flavor? These smashed potato nachos are the perfect answer. Think of them as the love child between classic nachos and roast potatoes: golden, crunchy smashed potatoes layered with rich cheesy beef, fresh toppings, and bold Tex-Mex flair.
Crowding your tray will lead to steaming rather than roasting. If the potatoes are too close together, they won't crisp up evenly. Spread them out over two trays if needed and rotate trays halfway through baking for that perfect golden crunch.
