Irish “nachos” traditionally swap tortilla chips for crispy potato slices. This late-night St. Patrick’s Day version stacks golden roasted potato rounds with emerald scallions, sharp Irish cheddar, and a cannabis-infused cheddar beer drizzle. The infusion lives entirely in the cheese sauce for precise dosing and bold flavor.
This recipe serves 6 snack portions.
Using 1.5g of 15% THC flower:
~55mg THC total (infused into cheddar beer sauce)
