This easy Strawberry Nachos recipe with crispy cinnamon sugar tortilla chips, whipped cream, and juicy strawberries is the most delicious summer dessert!
Strawberry season is just around the corner and I’m seeing strawberries recipes everywhere! It’s making me so excited for summer. A couple of years ago I saw a photo in a magazine for strawberry nachos at a strawberry festival in California and I’ve wanted to make them ever since. Not only do the strawberry nachos look beautiful, they are so good to eat. We like them even more than strawberry shortcake!

Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry flour tortillas on both sides until golden.

Keep the cinnamon chips, whipped cream, and strawberries separate until ready to serve. Fill a paper berry basket or paper berry basket with cinnamon sugar tortilla chips. Top with whipped cream and sugared strawberry pieces. Sprinkle with cinnamon chip bits and place a few whole strawberries on the top.
